Surprisingly wonderful little museum of local history. Much bigger on the inside than appears on the outside. Give yourself more than an hour. Free admission and parking.

One of the best times I had with my fiance James Neill before he passed away on May 3, 2019. He was so proud to show off his southern Heritage and I had an amazing time learning so much about the history of Anderson, SC.

Great history inside this amazing building. My husband and I drive by all the time and never thought to stop in. I am so glad we finally decided to take a look. We were there for 2 hours. The exhibits were nice and very informational. I learned things I've never known about. I'm originally from Honea Path. So to learn that we once had our own currency was really fascinating. I will include a picture! Over all it was a great place to visit. Free admission, but at least donate a buck or 2.

I visited this museum for the first time recently while in Anderson. I admit that I wasn't expecting much from a free museum. However, I was very pleasantly surprised by how nice this museum was. For a local history museum, they have a very extensive collection. Some of the exhibits reminded me of the SCSM in Columbia, which I love. I also loved the activity tables throughout the museum, they kept my toddler occupied. If in Anderson, this museum is definitely worth the visit.

Always Love going to the Anderson County Museum. The gifts are so cute and rare and the knowledge, I thought I knew everything about Anderson where I was born and raised, but I found out different. Alot of amazing information and the way the information is placed actually makes you feel like your there. Great place to go & learn about our Great Anderson SC.

Great museum. You'll learn everything you ever wanted to know about Anderson County (AC). The AC education exhibit was especially interesting. Knowledgeable docents. And it's free, but you should give them a donation! When in Anderson, check out their museum, you'll be glad you did.

This is a great little museum for our town's history. I love that it includes our high schools, sports legends and even war heros. I wish they would do more rotating exhibits to keep the scenery fresh. My kids love going there but now they have it memorized. If they had something new every 3 months it might pull in New patrons.
