American Clock & Watch Museum

American Clock & Watch Museum

The museum is located in a complex including the historic Miles Lewis residence, the partially relocated historic 1728 Barnes homestead, and a modern extension wing in the town of Bristol, Connecticut, the hometown of the former Ingraham Clock Company. Bristol is located North of Interstate Highway 84, about 30 minutes west of Hartford CT or two hours from New York City.

Exhibits

The exhibits include clocks (and some watches) from all periods and countries, but the focus of the exhibits is clearly on American clocks.
