Monessen Heritage Museum is a new museum in Westmoreland County. It opened its doors in October of 2004. It is owned and operated by the Greater Monessen Historical Society, which has been in existence since 1993 and has a membership of over 200 persons. The museum is housed in a four story commercial building which was donated to the GMHS. It is located at 505 Donner Avenue in the heart of the downtown. To date, the main floor is open and three or four completely new exhibits will be opened each year. The building was a boarding house for steel workers. The second floor is in the process of being turned into an archive and library. The top two floors will slowly be restored.

This historic collection traces its foundation to John Morris’s interest in plants from around the world, and includes plants collected in China by E.H. Wilson at the turn of the century. Many of the Delaware Valley’s "trees-of-record" (the largest of their kind) are found in the Arboretum. Most notable are the katsura, Engler beech, Bender oak, and trident maple.
