North Brevard Historical Museum

The North Brevard Historical Museum is located at 301 South Washington Avenue, Titusville, Florida. The museum opened when a local businessman, Glenn Patch, offered his commercial building to be used in October 1988. In December 1995, Patch then donated the museum building and the adjoining building to The Historical Society of North Brevard. Patch recognized the "value of an historical society to the community." [1] The mission for the museum, by The Historical Society of North Brevard, is "to collect, display, and present the history of North Brevard County.".[2] The museum houses historical artifacts, including historic postcards, photographs, clothing from as early as the 1870s, and a Seminole Indian display.[3]
