Cayce Historical Museum

Cayce Historical Museum The Cayce Historical Museum showcases Cayce's rich cultural and historical heritage.

Exhibits emphasize periods of Native American settlement, 18th century colonial trade, the American Revolution, the Civil War, WWII and modern-industrial history. Visitors can also explore the museum's sprawling grounds, featuring numerous outdoor exhibits, picnic tables, and a beautiful hiking trail that backs up to the Granby Pavilion and the Granby Gardens Playground. The main building in the C

ayce Historical Museum complex is a replica of a trading post, which was built in the Cayce area in 1765. That trading post was seized by the British during the American Revolution and used as a fort. In 1817, the building was purchased by the Cayce family who used it as a private residence for nearly 100 years. When citizens decided to incorporate the town in 1914, it was named after the Cayce family. The Museum welcomes visitors to comment and post on it's page, however, spam, advertisements, and comments/ posts that aren't related to the Museum, Museum sanctioned events, or the City of Cayce will be deleted.
