The Museum of Ashe County History, Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to the re-purposing of the historic 1904 Ashe County Courthouse building as a county heritage museum for our citizens, their children and our many friends who come to visit.

We use the objects, documents and images we collect to answer the questions: Who are we? Where did we come from? How did we get here? What did we do on the way? We think this will help us find good answers to another question: Where do we go from here?

The Courthouse building is the Museum's number 1 exhibit. Historic architects, restoration specialists, contractors and volunteers have worked for more than seven years restoring this elegant Victorian lady to her 1904 beauty. Our collections have been moved from their temporary location across the street, and the ground floor exhibit halls and gift shop are open daily.
