Located in one of the few remaining apricot orchards of Santa Clara Valley, the Los Altos History Museum explores the rich history of local people and how the use of the land over time has transformed the agricultural paradise once known as the "Valley of Heart’s Delight" into the high technology hub of today’s Silicon Valley.

"History and changing exhibits"

Historic house and museum for Los Altos and Silicon Valley area.  What's interesting to kids is their changing exhibits such as train sets, and their permanent hands-on and displays upstairs.  Has restrooms and gift shop.  Outside, there are old farm equipment and old trees.  Tours are free.
