Description
Built in 1910 by the AT&SF Railroad, the Belen Harvey House is one of only a few standing Harvey Houses in New Mexico. Ninety percent of the structure is original. Learn about the Museum’s history while touring the main museum, upstairs bedrooms and watching a short video. After the tour, you might want to purchase a dessert, baked in the kitchen of the Fred Harvey Whistle Stop Cafe to take home. The Harvey House museum is not fully handicapped accessible. Limited enrollment.
