Description
The Greene County Historical Society Museum is housed in the former Greene County Home, also known as an Almshouse or Poor Farm. It opened in 1862 and operated for a little over a century for over 6,000 residents or 'inmates' during its years of operation.
Delve into what life was like in such an institution throughout the course of a century of operation, and marvel at several exhibits relating to local history beginning with prehistoric Native Americans nearly 13,000 years ago, all the way up to the present time. The museum also features a treasure trove of artifacts pertaining to the heritage of Greene County and the surrounding area.
