WELCOME TO THE
HERNANDO HISTORICAL MUSEUM ASSOCIATION

The Hernando Historical Museum Association consists of three museums which celebrate and preserve the hard work and ingenuity of generations past and inspire current and future generations to value this heritage which was essential to Florida’s history, culture, and economic growth. To accomplish this we have three buildings: The May-Stringer House (the Heritage House), the 1885 Train Depot, and the Countryman One Room Schoolhouse.
