San Bernardino County Museum

Description

The San Bernardino County Museum, in Redlands, California, is a regional museum with exhibits and collections in cultural and natural history. Special exhibits, a hands-on Discovery Hall, extensive research collections, and public programs for adults, families, students, and children are all part of the Museum experience. The San Bernardino County Museum was founded in 1952 by the San Bernardino County Museum Association. It opened to the public in 1957, and was donated to the County of San Bernardino in 1961. The facility moved from Bloomington, California to its present home in Redlands in 1974. Our main museum in Redlands contains three floors of exhibits, a hands-on Discovery Hall, a Special Exhibits Hall, native plant and cactus gardens, citrus groves, curatorial offices, and research and reference collections.
