Originally built in the 1830s, this historic building was first used as a finishing school for the county’s young
women. After being destroyed by fire, it was reconstructed in 1855 and was later converted into a ‘civic
center’ for community activities, and at one time, housed a local radio station! It houses the Gwinnett History
Museum, with exhibits relating to early Gwinnett County farming, textiles, schools, and more!
