The Great Lakes to Florida Highway Museum, located in Wytheville, VA, offers visitors a nostalgic journey through the history of Route 21, once the primary route from Ohio to Florida. Opened in August 2010, the museum features original artifacts, newspaper clippings, and exhibits that narrate the development of this significant highway and Interstate 77.

In addition to its historical displays, the museum includes a vintage gas station built in 1926, which transitioned from a Texaco station to a small grocery store by the 1950s. This unique collection provides an engaging look at the evolution of travel and commerce in the region.
