This place is beautiful, it has a ton of historic structures and the Museum is totally free. Plus there is a play park and a very nice gazebo by a small pond with a stone bench and walkways.The barn has outdoor plays during the year!

Have been coming here for years, don’t know if we just came at the wrong time of the year but there wasn’t much to see. There used to be displays of soldiers uniforms, old artifacts, steam engines. There was also a dollhouse fully furnished and lighted. Loved seeing that as a little girl every time I came! Very disappointed on the inside. Loved all the out buildings especially the Easley Store!

We recently joined and toured the museum. It is an interesting museum for locals and for folks from out of town. We were impressed with the displays. We are excited to learn more and to participate in special events.

After being involved with the Boone History and Culture Center for years as part of the trust. Getting more involved in volunteering with the glass plate project and current exhibits has been very rewarding. I am so proud to be a part of this wonderful organization as it continues to grow and flourish.

The Boone County History and Culture Center is an absolute treasure in Boone County! Ive been actively involved with BCHS for the past five years. Ive learned so much and enjoyed numerous programs and events connecting Boone County art, history, music, and culture. Theres something great going on every week!Local history matters: It is the story of us.

BCHCC has come a long way in the last few years thanks to the great leadership of its director. Wonderful exhibits, art gallery, musical performances, and easy parking make this a must destination in Columbia, especially for those who call Boone County home.

A fascinating place to learn about the history and famous people from Boone County, and Columbia, Missouri. I try to visit monthly to see the new displays. There is also an on-site record of the local census since the area has been settled.

If your family is from Boone County Missouri and want to know more, this is the place to go for books on your ancestors. A day in the life of the pioneer women is a room displaying that gives great insight. Blind Boones beautiful piano is in the back surrounded by pictures of Boone county nature. It is a definite must see for your history.
