Our hours are 11:00am – 3:00pm
Fridays and Saturdays.
Stop in and see our new exhibits.
Docents will wear a mask, and guests are also asked to wear a mask.  Masks are provided if needed.

All museum rooms are refreshed and have some wonderful new items to see.

New visual exhibits in our changing display rooms include:

• Early post offices, including a Danville Post Office cage from the early 1900s,
  on loan from Bill Hartung. 
• Women’s Suffrage and Prohibition of the early 1920s.
• Five of Hendricks County’s Townships are featured:
  Liberty, Guilford, Brown, Lincoln and Middle Townships. 

               Watch for the other Townships in 2021!

The Hendricks County Museum is at 170 S. Washington Street in Danville, just one block south of the courthouse square in the building that served from 1868 to 1974, as the Hendricks County Sheriff’s home, with the jail in the basement. It is furnished as it would have been in the late 1800s.
