The Studebaker National Museum presents the history of the Studebaker Corporation, an automobile manufacturer; and, in doing so, displays U.S. transportation history.

Collection highlights include a 19th-century Conestoga wagon; military vehicles from six wars; and the presidential carriages of Ulysses S. Grant, Benjamin Harrison, Abraham Lincoln, and William McKinley. Lincoln's carriage is the vehicle he used to travel to Ford's Theater the night of his assassination.

Architectural historians consider the Francis Costigan House a masterpiece of 19th-century design. The house is situated on a narrow city lot measuring only 22 feet in width. Costigan built this house in 1850 as his private residence. The brick two-story house is Greek Revival in style and has a portico with two fluted columns capped with Corinthian capitals. The portico is heavily adorned and includes a sliding pocket door entry. The ceiling of the portico is deeply coffered and heavily decorated. The interior of the house has a magnificent drawing room 30 feet long with bow end, twin fireplaces, and a high ceiling with deeply depressed panels, heavily ornamented with egg-and-dart moldings. The house shows Costigan's characteristically fine woodwork, including both curved and sliding doors and a stepladder staircase with a push gate at the top. This creative use of space reflects Costigan's skill and ingenuity as an architect to create such an elegant house in a limited space.
