The Birmingham Historical Museum features the 1822 John West Hunter House and the 1928 Allen House. These historic buildings sit side-by-side in the beautiful John West Hunter Historic Park near downtown.

Mission
The mission of the museum, which opened in May 2001, is to preserve, protect and promote the community's unique heritage. A primary focus of the Museum is to expand educational programs for area schools.

A glimpse of life in Birmingham's pioneering years comes to life when visitors step inside and stroll through the furnished rooms of the 1822 John West Hunter House. The period of 1820-1880's is well represented by the house's furnishings.
