Occupied by three generations of a steel-working family, from the 1860s to 1990s, the Wagner-Ritter House and Garden tells "the story of a modest, working-class family who spent their lives in "the shadow of the mills" in Johnstown's Cambria City" with the help of tax documents, census information and other public records. Topics covered in the main exhibit, "The World of the Wagners," include housework, gardening, 19th-century childhood and the material culture. Such outbuildings as a barn, privy and a bake oven shelter and a German raised-bed garden in the backyard have been recreated based on historic and archeological evidence.
