Pioneer Village

Head on down to Pioneer Village -  we're firing up the forges! Our outdoor space is open. Pioneer Village will be open 10 a.m. -  3 p.m., Friday through Sunday (weather permitting). Come see us after the Farmer's Market on Saturday!

Pioneer Village is an outdoor living history museum. This interactive interpretive area includes gold panning and a working blacksmith forge. Here, you can explore a miner's cabin, a genuine Southern Pacific Railroad caboose and walk through historic Ashland Station. 

As of June 17th, per updated guidelines from public health authorities the Folsom Historical Society is no longer requiring masks for our visitors at the Folsom History Museum or Pioneer Village.  Our docents have been instructed to respect anyone who enters wearing a mask by putting on their own mask as well. 

This policy is subject to change whenever public health authorities make changes to our local health and safety policies.
