The Frontier Culture Museum in Staunton, Virginia is a living history museum.
It features reconstructed working farms from Germany, Northern Ireland, and England. The American farm dating about 100 years later, is the merging of these three cultures who settled the new world in Virginia and formed this unique new culture.
