Matthews Heritage Museum is a living history museum housed within the 1880 Massey-Clark House, one of the oldest extant structures within the Charlotte suburb of Matthews. The home was originally constructed for Civil War veteran and physician Henry V. Massey, equipped with pine flooring and designed according to popular housing trends of the era. The home was sold to Susie and C.C. Clark in 1925 and remained in the Clark family until its was donated to the Town of Matthews in 1977. Today, the home interprets the first century of residential living in Matthews through a variety of restored artifacts and exhibits, including a Lifestyles Gallery and Community Gallery, which feature exhibits on typical civic life in the area during the 19th century.
