Naper Settlement -- A 19th Century VillageTELL A FRIEND
The past comes to life at Naper Settlement, the only outdoor history museum in Illinois accredited by the American Association of Museums. This 19th century museum village, located in the heart of downtown Naperville, Illinois, features a 13-acre site with more than 30 historic structures. Visit our elegant Victorian Martin Mitchell Mansion listed on the National Register of Historic Places, drop in for a class at the one-room schoolhouse, tour a working blacksmith shop and print shop, climb aboard the Conestoga wagon and explore Fort Payne, and hear about the past from our costumed interpreters (located on the grounds during the summer season and for special programs).
Naper Settlement is located in downtown Naperville, Illinois, just 30 miles west of Chicago. It is close to major highways and tollways, including I-355 and I-88/290. Follow the Downtown Naperville Directional Signs to the entrance, located at Aurora Avenue and Webster Street. Aurora Avenue is one block south of Washington Street and Jefferson Street, and Webster Street is two blocks west of Washington Street. Parking is free.
