Florida Pioneer Museum

Florida Pioneer Museum Official page of the Florida Pioneer Museum. Enriching Lives through Local History. Family friendly history excursions​. from November through April.

The Museum is open and free to the public from November through April and for organizations by appointment. Visitors to the Museum explore life as it was in South Florida in the early 1900s with rooms furnished as they would have been then with artifacts donated by local residents. Children find many items that they can touch and operate such as early telephones, cash registers and kitchen equipme

nt. A tool room displays the agricultural implements and tools that early settlers used to plow their fields with mules. Exhibits also feature Henry Flagler’s Florida East Coast Railway, schools, churches, archeology, Native Americans, and the tourism industry. The two docents on duty are volunteers and the Museum is always looking to expand its docent corps. No previous knowledge of local history is necessary; training is provided. The Florida Pioneer Museum offers families a free excursion into our past every Wednesday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and Sunday from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. It is also a great asset for youth and home school groups. Free tours can be arranged by sending an e-mail to Karon Grunwell at [email protected] or by calling the Museum at 305-246-9531.
