HISTORIC SARANAC LAKE

COLLECTION

Historic Saranac Lake houses a unique collection of artifacts, photographs, and documents pertaining to Saranac Lake area history, with a focus on the tuberculosis industry. 

The collections in the Saranac Laboratory Museum allow us to tell the story of the unique history of Saranac Lake. Without these items, we would be unable to communicate this important history to our visitors. We are committed to providing appropriate care, storage, and organization to our collections to further our mission.
