R.A. Gray Florida History Museum

The R.A. Gray Florida History Museum is housed in a government building in downtown Tallahassee and displays collections about the state's history. The gallery spaces document Florida's development from prehistoric times through the modern era.

The museum was created to preserve and show Florida's material culture and how people lived across the region over thousands of years. Its collections range from archaeological finds to objects from the 1900s.

The gallery dedicated to Native American peoples shows how different groups lived and used the land they inhabited. Visitors learn through objects and recreated spaces how these cultures shaped life across the region.

The building is designed for easy access and parking is available near the location downtown. It is worth checking opening status before visiting, as building work may occasionally affect visiting hours.

The museum also operates the Knott House, a historic residence nearby where important proclamations were read during the Civil War era. This additional landmark offers insight into the region's freedom history.
