Maag House
The Maag House, completed in 1899, was the ranch house of citrus and nut grower John Anton Maag and his family. The exterior of the house, which has recently undergone a major facelift, displays a number of interesting architectural details. The interior has yet to be restored. Two other buildings from the Maag Ranch are nearby property. The water tower, which used to provide running water to the estate, now houses a small gift shop that can be opened on request. Across the main walkway, the carriage barn, which housed horses and buggies, has been remodeled inside to provide meeting and office space. More Details...

Gardens
A number of lovely gardens, lawns, and orchards surround Heritage Museum’s historic buildings. Our formal rose garden and our citrus groves are particularly prominent, but there are many other botanical delights as well. Vibrant colors and sweet natural fragrances are a treat for the senses no matter the season. More Details...

Nature Area
The northeast portion of the museum’s property has been set aside as a nature reserve. The area is relatively undeveloped, but visitors are welcome to walk its trails. The last surviving freshwater wetlands in Santa Ana are located in this reserve. A variety of wild creatures, including coyotes, squirrels, raccoons, red-tailed hawks, egrets, gopher snakes, and lizards, make their homes here or include the reserve in their ranges.
