Trap History Museum

The Trap History Museum in Galloway, Ohio is a remarkable destination for historians and trappers alike, dedicated to preserving the rich heritage of trapping. With an extensive collection of over 4,000 traps ranging from mouse to bear, as well as a diverse array of fur trade items and a vast library of fur trade books, the museum offers a captivating exploration of this fascinating industry.

Divided into five distinct sections, including the Newhouse room, Mouse trap room, European trap room, Modern trap room, and the Main Section featuring life-size mounts of fur-bearing animals, the museum showcases Tom Parr's personal collection. Additionally, visitors can marvel at the NATCA Museum, Inc., which houses 150 exceptionally rare traps on loan from the late Richard Gerstell's collection, courtesy of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission.
