Please note the museum is no longer located in the old state police barracks on Worcester Street due a fire - it's now located on Providence Road - still in Grafton. We went to the wrong location & had to backtrack & arrived at 2:30 on a Tuesday. The officer gave us a one hour tour - even though the closing time is 3:00. He was very informative & answered all our questions. So much history here. My husband loved Sgt Toney's uniform at he used to work with him ("He never fit into that! he said!) & he also enjoyed seeing the 1977 Ford police car. They have recreated Norman Rockwell's "Runaway" scene which is lots of fun! You could easily spend 2 hours here. They are open every Tuesday & every other weekend.

The Willard House & Clock Museum

The Willard House is a cultural and historical treasure hidden in the heart of Blackstone Valley. In addition to the beautiful architecture, which dates to 1718, the museum also features one of the finest collections of clocks in the world. Come by for a tour and see where time began in Blackstone Valley.

The Willard House is the gem of Grafton and historic treasure for the state of Massachusetts. The staff is most knowledgeable about the history of the Willard family as well as the rare artifacts within. A must visit.
