The Museum and Library Collection

The Johnson County Museum of History houses over 10,000 objects relating to the region’s past and present and more than 10,000 photographs and documents.   Many of the museum’s unique artifacts are used throughout exhibits and help to enhance programs. The collection also includes an 1830s cabin, located next to the museum.  In addition, an array of antique farm machinery is housed at Sawmill Barn in Johnson County Park.  Our genealogy and local history library contains a wealth of research materials, many of which are original documents, relating to Johnson County and surrounding regions.
