Stuart Heritage Museum

The Stuart Heritage Museum occupies a historic commercial building and displays artifacts, historical photographs, and documents that document Martin County's growth and development. The space is arranged to guide visitors through different periods and aspects of the region's past.

The building began as a commercial space in Stuart's early years, originally operating as a feed store before its conversion to a museum in 1988. This transformation reflected the community's growing interest in documenting and preserving its local history.

The collections reflect how residents built their community through commerce, farming, and family networks that shaped Martin County. Visitors see how daily life and local institutions grew from the efforts of ordinary people living here.

The museum sits on Flagler Avenue in downtown Stuart and offers free admission with regular weekday hours. Guests should plan for a walking tour of the exhibits and can expect modest crowds, especially on weekday mornings.

Wednesday mornings bring long-time residents together for an Old-Timers Social where they share personal memories and stories over refreshments. This gathering shows how the museum serves as a living meeting place where community bonds are maintained across decades.
