The back stories are worth the trip. Kudos to Paul for not only putting the museum together but being a great communicator about the pieces and their history. Keep the faith!

We stumbled upon this place while we were exploring the area and we were pleasantly surprised. So much history and the accordions Make the place look like a giant art installation. Paul was very knowledgeable, friendly and had a lifetime of stories to share. We ended up buying his book online afterwards!

My fiance and I met Paul today at his wonderful accordion museum. He was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. We experienced a tremendous amount of history and we even got to listen to Paul play and educate on us on the accordion! Highly recommend checking this museum out!

What an amazing place to view a collection of accordions. Paul was a gracious host, explaining the stories associated with each device. A family member played the accordion while young, bringing back memories. It is recommended to call or write ahead to see if the museum is open.

Wonderful place to visit if you have any connection to accordions whatsoever in your part or family’s past…heck, I’d go even further that it’s an amazing place period. Paul loves to share stories and walk you around the showroom - it’s a historical bonanza of accordions from the past 100 years and the sheer view of wall to wall squeezeboxes is quite the sight to behold. I went back again with my 11 yo son and he was amazed as well. And yes - there is an annex room with accordions for sale. It is free but there is a donation box if you are so moved:)
