Local History Comes Alive Through Clinton Farms Exhibit

The Clinton Farms exhibit is just one of many, located at the Old Douglas County Courthouse.

The Clinton Farms exhibit consists of an extensive collection of items reflecting the daily lives of Clinton Farms residents from the late nineteenth to the late twentieth century.

The Old Douglas County Courthouse was constructed in 1956 and was used as the government headquarters until 1998. It was adopted for reuse by the Douglas County Tourism and History Commission and became The Douglas County Museum of History and Art. Its unique international architectural style qualified it to be placed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The museum is open on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 5 p.m. Admission is free but donations are accepted. Special tours are available for groups of one to 100.
