Welcome to the Cherokee County Historical Museum! If you're in Murphy, NC you won't want to miss out on this stop and admission is only $3.00 for adults and $1.00 for children. You can't miss the Historic Courthouse, and the museum is just a few doors down from it. Filled with Native-American artifacts, Pioneer Implements, Antique Firearms, Period Dress, Early School House Room, Photographs, Quilts, Doll Collection, and a Log Cherokee Dwelling circa 1800. These are just a few of the items you'll find on your trip to the Cherokee County Historical Museum.

Happy Thanksgiving Lee & Carol! I love to go through the museums and always wonder how our forefathers survived. This looks like a great place to visit the past, along with the Folk School.

And a Happy Thanksgiving to you too Mary. I'm really drawn to places like the local museums and the Folk School. It is amazing how little people had and how resourceful they were.
