The Hernando Historical Museum Association provides the community with the opportunity to step into the past and learn the history of the county and the state of Florida.
The Museums Association is a non-profit, all-volunteer organization. We receive no sustaining funds from the city, county, or state governments. Our doors are kept open and the bills paid by the small entrance fee, special fundraising events, and donators like you.
