The Richard and Pat Johnson Palm Beach County Museum is a historic treasure that can be found in the 1916 Courthouse in downtown West Palm Beach. Come explore the People Gallery and learn about the individuals that made Palm Beach County what it is today. It's here you'll learn about the Pre-Columbian residents, the Seminole Indians, early pioneers and then many men and women leaders that have helped the county since then. The Place Gallery, the second permanent exhibit, is where you can learn about the natural environment and what makes the area so unique. I particularly enjoy the story of the "Barefoot Mailman" who carried the mail from Palm Beach County to Miami from 1885- 1892. Come see his story, as well as the stories of so many others in this beautifully restored building free of charge; open Tuesday- Saturday from 10 AM- 5 PM.
