The Heritage Museum of Orange County will offer free admission to Santa Ana residents on Saturday, as well as the first Sunday of every month.

19th century buildings like The Kellogg House, The Maag House and a blacksmith shop will be open to the public.

The museum boasts several floral gardens and Santa Ana’s only surviving freshwater marsh on the north end of the museum’s 11-acre nature preserve. Hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
