About Newland House Museum

The Newland House is the oldest house in Huntington Beach and is cared for by the Huntington Beach Historical Society. It was built in 1898 for pioneer couple William and Mary Newland and their ten children. The family farmed a large ranch stretching across several blocks, growing crops such as lima beans, sugar beets, celery and later chili peppers. Visitors can tour the house on set weekend mornings, and the museum is closed on major holidays and rainy days.
