The Franklin County Historical Society maintains a fine regional museum containing historically representative artifacts and donated items collected over many years. This panorama highlights the areas medical and health care history with many interesting items.
In 1983, after over two years of painstaking renovation, the Society moved into the former Carnegie Library, which originally opened in 1911. Exhibits feature Native American artifacts, information on Lewis & Clark’s Corp of Discovery, railroad development, agriculture, irrigation, area ferries and bridges, aviation and health care, as well as a wealth of local artifacts and photos.
A visit to the museum’s website will provide many photos and more in-depth information about the local area history.
