The Josiah Day House is the oldest known surviving saltbox brick house in America. Built in 1754 by Josiah Day, the house is located on Park Street in West Springfield, MA. It was lived in by the Day Family until 1903, when the last Four Day sisters sold the house to the newly formed Ramapogue Historical Society.

The RHS was formed to care for the Josiah Day House, with it’s mission to preserve the Josiah Day House. In our efforts to preserve the house and keep it running as a museum, we host events to educate the community, bring in donations, and keep West Springfield’s history alive.

You can visit the Josiah Day House at 70 Park Street, West Springfield
