Facts and practical information

The Chudnow Museum of Yesteryear is a former museum that was started by Avrum M. Chudnow in 1991. The museum was housed in an 1869 residence on 839 North 11th Street Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. This house was formerly a clinic and home of Dr. Joseph J. Eisenberg. This house also held his extensive collection of artifacts from the late 1800s through 1970 which today make up the exhibits of the museum. In early 2021, the museum made the decision to close this location and transfer the collection to the Cedarburg History Museum. ()
