Oregon Ridge Nature Center Exhibits

Oregon Ridge offers a variety of exhibits explaining the history, wildlife, and natural environment of this 19th century iron and marble mining site.

Explore exhibits of fauna and flora and archaeology inside the Nature Center, as well as our exhibits of live animals, including snakes, fish, amphibians, honeybees, and other creatures. The new aquatic turtle exhibit is our latest addition.

An outdoor exhibit explains the old mining and smelting furnace operations, and the archaeology house is restored as a former miner tenant house.
