The St. Clair Historical Museum, located in the old firehouse on Main Street, St. Clair, MO, is a 501(c)(3) educational charity dedicated to preserving and showcasing the history of St. Clair and its surrounding areas. Established in 1987, the museum offers a range of exhibits and events, including a Military Living History day featuring displays of guns from various eras, from the French and Indian War to the Vietnam-Era. With a focus on community involvement, the museum welcomes donations and volunteers to help maintain its regular hours and greet visitors.
Following an electrical fire in 2014 that destroyed most of the old museum and exhibits, the St. Clair Historical Museum has made a remarkable comeback, now offering an online store called the Old Hibbard Store, where visitors can make purchases or donations to support the museum. Additionally, the museum has recently released a cookbook, "Recipes from Then to Now Volume II," featuring a collection of main dishes and sides that reflect the culinary heritage of the region. Group and private tours are also available, providing an opportunity for visitors to delve deeper into the rich history of St. Clair and its neighboring areas.
