About National Bottle Museum

The National Bottle Museum is located on Milton Avenue (NY 50/67) in downtown Ballston Spa, New York, United States. Established in 1978, it has a collection of over 3,700 antique bottles, most made prior to industrialization of the process in 1903. It has moved from its original location, a historic house which it restored, after a legal dispute with its founding organization.

In 1996 it received a charter from the state Board of Regents. The museum also exhibits the tools of early bottle making.
