Your Window into Clark County History
The Clark County Museum, Inc., was formed in 2008 by a group of people who were collectors of Clark County artifacts and memorabilia and who understood the importance of our county both in Indiana and United States history. Our goal was to establish a county museum dedicated to the acquisition, storage, display, and interpretation of these artifacts.

Our Mission
Our mission is to collect, preserve display and interpret artifacts pertaining to the history of Clark County. These artifacts are messages from our past to the people of the future.
The museum collection ranges from the era of Native Americans to the present and includes family papers, photograph collections, early maps, clothing, Edwardian toys, vehicles, artworks, and archaeological artifacts of Clark County, to name a few. See the Exhibits page to get a glimpse of what we have on public display.
The May “Second Thursday” program will be “The View From the Sidewalk: Collected Stories of Jeffersonville, Indiana” by Jeanne Burke. Modeled on the walking tours of old Jeffersonville, these are the stories that make history come alive.
Historic Gems of Jeffersonville
Three museums are participating in this: Howard Steamboat Museum, Vintage Fire Museum, and Clark County Museum. Each participant will receive a booklet to take to the three museums. The museum will issue a sticker which they will place in their booklet. When visitors have been to all three museums and have the three stickers in their book, the final museum will award them with a beautiful magnet for each museum!
