Bianchini House in Cambria Historic East Village


Bianchini House Museum, from Seekers Art Glass Gallery
See Bernard Katz Tree Vases and Bowls

The Historic Bianchini House was built by Samuel Guthrie in 1882. In 1914, the house was sold to Eugenio Bianchini, a Swiss immigrant who came to this country in 1878. After farming, mining, dairying, and running butchery, he retired to this home. The property was unoccupied for many years; the Cambria Historical Society purchased the house through donations from the community. After years of dedication and countless hours from volunteers remodeling the property is was reopened in 2009 to the public as a museum, preserving Cambria's heritage.
