There is a tremendous amount of wonderful historical items here, and everything seems to be laid out where I'm guessing the time periods are similar. The staff is also very friendly and the museum is very clean and the air conditioner works wonderfully. They should also be noted that entrance is free and there is plenty of free parking nearby. My only small complaint is a lot of these items. Just don't have a description so I would be looking at something and I'm just not too sure what it is or what it's historical significance is or was. I think that if more of these items were labeled and had a small history or description of what they are, that would be incredibly helpful.

I would highly recommend everyone to visit this place at least once. It has captured a slice of history beautifully. Every volunteer is so humble and gracious, and they show you the museum with such interest and dedication. There is something of interest for all ages and the murals and beautifully created too. The place is wonderfully maintained, and you will definitely leave with immense knowledge.

Well organized historical items from the Opelika area and items of historical value from other places donated by people who live in Opelika/Auburn area. Everything from musical instruments to public safety as well as an old barber shop, beauty salon, typesetting equipment, Indian artifacts and more. A must see attraction nestled in historic downtown Opelika, Al. Diagonal from the Courthouse.

Really cool, they have old WW2 antiques. They even have a manually used fire alarm in the garage at the back with a old firetruck. Served hit choco the time I went, even gave out marshmallows for it
