The Monteith House, a meticulously restored 1849 house-museum, stands as a testament to Oregon's pioneer era and is recognized on the National Register of Historic Places. It was originally constructed by brothers Walter and Thomas Monteith, who played a pivotal role in establishing the city of Albany after arriving via the Oregon Trail. Beyond being a historical residence, the Monteith House served as a vital community center in early Albany, hosting significant meetings and events that contributed to the region's development. Operated by the Monteith Historic Society, this site invites visitors to explore its rich history and the legacy of the Monteith family in shaping the community. Generated from the website
