Welcome to The Octagon House of Camillus!

This museum represents a popular building trend of the mid-19th century, showcasing a collection of artifacts and antiques from the 1850’s to 1900. Individuals and groups will be guided on a tour of the many rooms which spiral six-stories all the way to the Cupola at the top, offering a pleasant view of the Camillus scenery.

Enjoy the stories along the tour about the meaning behind the octagon-shaped structure, and the families who had once lived in this special house.
