I have lived here my whole life and just went in. It is a must see for anyone visiting or who has lived here
Lots of interesting artifacts. Great rainy day trip. Parking was the hardest part of the visit.
Or was small and free, plus they have docents. The upstairs 3d photography exhibit was my favorite part.
Surprisingly good little museum exploring the history of Fairhope, one of the cutest towns on the Gulf Coast. Great artifacts and interpretive materials throughout the well-kept museum space. And, admission is free!
This museum is a well done local archive of information. Well worth a visit and free.
I've never stopped and explored Fairhooe as I did yesterday. I have always wanted to stop & explore the beautiful little historic town that my grandmother was from, but when I came upon the adorable (FREE) museum I had to stop. It featured the first firetruck, jail, and many other wonderful things including the notable people of Fairhope. If you love history & historic this, this is definitely one to stop & admire.
There was a lot of information packed into this little museum. There is no admission and everyone is friendly and helpful. It is wheelchair accessible as well.
.What an experience. I came to this town by chance but I also don't believe in coincidence. This 2 floor museum is full of history and surprises. I didn't know about Organic Education or Single Tax corporation. The relics of history here are vast and can't say enough about the man at the door with the Mayor sign on desk. Hilarious and true asset to the character of museum. The photos and biographies are in murals and videos here and it quaint yet spacious enough to roam. Very well organized and interesting like the town of Fairhope itself
