John Wells Pratt House Museum

John Wells Pratt House Museum is a historic house museum in Fulton and the home of Friends of History in Fulton. The brick Italianate house was built in 1861 by John Wells Pratt and his wife Harriet on what was then the leading residential street of the village.

It was placed on the National and State Registers of Historic Places in 2000. Inside, the kitchen has been restored to show how the family lived in 1861, and the upstairs holds permanent exhibits on local industries, sports, education and transportation.
