Headquarters to the Allen Historical Society, the Passerdyke Cottage is an early 19th century dwelling located in the heart of the village. The Cottage houses an archival and exhibition space on the second floor of the residence. According to the AHS, exhibits include vintage photographs and memorabilia of village life during the 19th and 20th centuries, with particular emphasis on education, religion, domestic life, and agriculture. There is also an exhibit on Allen's African American community, beginning with slavery and continuing with the foundation of a free black community beginning in the 1830s.
