The Woodman It was opened in 1916 under the name of Woodman Institute. The museum's campus includes three Federal style brick houses. One of them is the former home of Senator John P. Hale, noted abolitionist. The museum features exhibits of local history, natural history, art and antiques. One of the most notable item is the saddle in which President Abraham Lincoln rode to see the troops not long before his assassination. There are also examples of Dover's textile products, relics from the wars in which the United States has fought, a 10-foot stuffed polar bear from the Arctic, an old 13 star American flag, an old piano with genuine ivory keys, and a collection of stuffed animals. .
