Beaches Museum Reopens History Park

Foreman

Beaches Museum has missed you!  We are happy to announce the reopening of our History Park on May 21! We invite you all to come take a self-guided tour through our beautiful History Park. The garden is blooming, the birds are singing and history is waiting on you!

A brief guide to the history of each building and feature of our Park will be available through phones and other mobile devices. We hope you can learn something new every time you come. Visit our new informational page on Clio here: https://www.theclio.com/entry/99431. Information is included about the 1911 Steam Locomotive, the Pablo Beach Post Office, the Mayport Florida East Coast Railway Depot and Foreman’s House, the 1873 Oesterreicher-McCormick Cabin, the Beaches Museum Chapel and more.

“Our Heritage Garden is in full bloom and has never been more beautiful, making it an ideal time to take a peaceful walk through our gardens and historic buildings. The addition of the free mobile app will give everyone the opportunity to learn more about each of the buildings and features in the park” says Chris Hoffman, Director of Beaches Museum.

With visitors and our volunteers in mind, our buildings will remain closed until we can open them safely. We request that you maintain appropriate distancing so everyone can be safe and comfortable during their tour.

“We are excited to begin welcoming our guests back to Beaches Museum” adds Hoffman.
