About HCH: Built in 1787 for Philip and Maria Van Rensselaer and lived in continuously by 5+ generations of extended family, enslaved people, descendants, and domestic workers until 1963, Historic Cherry Hill (HCH) tells a story of America through the lives and experiences of one Albany household. Rare among this country's house museums, Cherry Hill's extensive and intact collection includes more than 70,000 items-decorative arts and furnishings, books, diaries, documents, clothing, bedding, photographs, and other objects reflecting daily life.

Our Mission: Historic Cherry Hill invites diverse audiences to explore American history through the unique lens of one Albany household and, through intimate encounters with the past, encourages audiences toward new perspectives on their own stories and place in history.
