Appomattox Co. Historical Museum

Just a short thirty minute drive to the east, The Appomattox County Historical Museum is located in the Court House Square. The Appomattox County Historical Museum was previously a jail started in 1895 and completed in 1897. It was the third jail to have been built in Appomattox County and was in continuous use until May 1981. The museum houses a turn-of-the-century one-room school, a doctor’s office, a jail cell, plus numerous artifacts and interesting memorabilia of the past.

The museum is open May through October.
