From folk heroes to famous inventors, the Mohican area’s past is full of colorful characters and amazing stories: inventors who revolutionized the way we live, entertainers who wowed royalty, explorers who braved the frontier, and industries that became icons of their time. The CRF Museum tells these stories and more through period displays interactive exhibits also operates the historic Workman Cabin, built in 1838 in Central Park. The cabin was home to Morgan and Jerutia Workman and their 12 children, serving not only as their residence but also a wayward inn and a Dunkard church.
