Providing an intimate experience of history, heritage, and home.

Experience the warmth and charm of life as it was lived by a small-town doctor. Dr. Thomas R. Kerr, his wife Jessie, and daughter Virginia lived in their gracious home in Oakmont, a quaint town outside of Pittsburgh that provided an escape from the often harsh conditions of life in the city. The museum portrays middle-class family life in the late nineteenth century. This period was marked by the extremes of fabulous wealth and grinding poverty, which overshadowed the emerging middle class.

FEATURED EXHIBIT
VICTORIAN WEDDING EXHIBIT
May through August, 2022
In celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the Kerr Museum, we are delighted to announce the return of our most popular exhibit: “Victorian Weddings & Romantic Customs of a Bygone Era”. The exhibit features numerous wedding dresses of the period, as well as trousseau items and examples of wedding gifts. The bridal theme is carried throughout the house, showing the dining room and parlor as it might have been set up for a wedding celebration.
Do not miss this opportunity to view our lovely wedding exhibit. The Kerr Museum is open now by appointment only by calling 412-826-9295 to schedule a guided tour.
