This is a wonderful local museum, celebrating the history and people of Florence County, S.C. It is a beautiful building – inside and out – with well-constructed exhibits, great artifacts and summaries. If youre in the area, its well worth a visit. And its free to boot.

First time going here today. Its is free, parking can be hard to find if its busy. Free guided tours. Lots of beautiful historical pictures and relics. Very beautiful and clean museum. Definitely worth a stop by. Very easy to see from the street. Very helpful friendly staff.

Very proud that our community has a modern, spacious, and well-run museum!

I am giving stars based in my experience in a class. I definitely will go back to experience the museum. The class was informative, fun, and interactive. We left with the materials and knowledge to try what we learned in our classes or own our own.

Lovely, well done Museum! I attended an Art fundraising Event. The food was good and plentiful! I would encourage the locals and visitors to stop in and see the growing educational addition to Downtown Florence.

Had a great time doing the indigo dye class. It was so informative and I loved the dish towel we were given to dye.

Had alot of interesting art, history and science. Very clean, nice, educational. Had a great time

Loved all the local history displays. Great place to get a feel for how the city started.

Its not as big as most musuems but it has a lot of history and art work. 2 floors to be exact. They have bathrooms on both floors and they have an elevator for those unable to take the stairs. Admission is free and parking is on the side of the building. When you get the time stop by.

Step up much higher from when located near Timrod Park. Beautiful paintings like Tumultuous Sea, loaded with history like a documentary when an A-Bomb dropped on Mars Bluff, walk through time history of the development of Florence and the Heart of to the Pee Dee. Awesome...

Always a great time on family day with the kids with kid friendly creative projects

Great staff and hyper local exhibits with world class information.

Free museum with exhibits of both local and worldwide interest. It’s well maintained and the staff is gracious. Worth a visit!!

The place is well maintain but the staffs were not approachable

Very rewarding experience

Great stop to learn local history. Very well presented, great facility.

Love to stop in regularly to appreciate the ever changing display.

This museum was in Architectural Digest as one of the best small museums in the US, come find out why!

Attractive interesting museum. Nicely done. Mixture of local history and art. Worth seeing.

The motorcycle and car show was awesome and the band was good too

Nice local museum. Kids enjoyed

Artbyjo I was raised in Florence and left (my work is in the Nation Museum of Women in the Art) after high school, it was nice to visit and see the history of the town through art.

Very interesting! I like looking at interesting historical stuff.

Good displays and helpful staff.

Extremely interesting place for both art and the history of Florence SC..

Great place full of information

We had a very nice reception there tonight for Masterworks.

Great free museum!

I really enjoyed my experience. I visited on my lunch break and didnt want to leave because there is so much to see. Staff is very nice and professional.

Loved visiting here!

Pretty interesting place. Good spot to spend the day.

A place that is very quiet and the exhibits are always the same though.

What a great place. The museum is beautiful with such friendly staff. Interesting history of the piedmont area.

It’s free and something to do in Florence.

It is a very informative place with bits of almost every county in Florence and beyond. Some civil war artifacts as well as some fossils that were found on Edisto Island. Of course, there some things about Francis Marion. We did not see the other half (where portraits, and paintings are displayed.). We do plan to return soon!

This is a wonderful place to discover the fascinating things from Florences history. People, art, artifacts, and a great art gallery next door. Definitely visit here if youre local or visiting. Excellent for kids as well.

Was there for the pecan festival which happens the first Saturday of November every year

Learning how they treat our children was amazing! Its free and fun!

The museum is new and has an exhibit on the history of Florence County. Its a big well lit space with superior presentation and signage. There are also many temporary exhibits throughout the year to keep locals coming back. The museum offers art classes for all ages, family days and docent led tours too.

Always a great place to spend a couple of hours on a hot or rainy day.

I love the exhibits theyre really relatable. Everyone must experience their Family Day away the museum, its a lot of fun

Great place to know all about the history of Florence County. Artistic and modern!

Went to the new museum with my two you gest daughters for the first time. Surprisingly well layed out, and well appointed. Monthly craft activities for children as well.

Pleasant surprise. Remember to provide a donation on your way out.

The art was meh...the history was VERY Informative. Make sure if you get a locker to ask how to set up a pin. lol I didnt lol

Great service and special power and really Good and helpful.

Its a small and interesting place to go through, it wont like more than 30 minutes unless you want to stop and read every single plaque
