The Chapman Museum presents the history of the Glens Falls – Queensbury community and its connection to the Adirondack region.

By encouraging discovery, understanding, and appreciation of the region's heritage, the museum provides perspective for the present and the future.

The historic home attached to the museum was originally built by Zopher DeLong who made his living as a hardware merchant in Glens Falls.

Following Zopher's death in 1901, his son John took over the home and remodeled it to reflect his desire for modern tastes and conveniences.

Six decades later, Juliet Chapman, a relative by marriage, donated the house to the community to become a local history museum.
