Acorn Hall, headquarters of Morris County Historical Society (MCHS), was built in 1853 as a Georgian Four-Square, but modified and enlarged  by Augustus Crane in the Italianate villa-style by 1860. Home to four generations of Crane-Hone families, Acorn Hall was donated fully furnished to MCHS in 1971. Restored by MCHS, Acorn Hall is noted for its original 19th-century furniture, finishes, and fine and decorative arts.

MCHS maintains an extensive historic archive and collection, including one of the finest costume collections outside of NYC and one of the few publicly-held La Farge adjacent 19th-century stained glass windows. Collections serve as the basis for rotating exhibits displayed throughout Acorn Hall and within its two gallery spaces. Your contributor membership benefits for a year include North American Reciprocal Museum (NARM) membership benefits, free admission to Acorn Hall (up to four people per household), free or reduced admission to all MCHS events, and a 15% discount in the Gallery Gift Shop.
