About Us

The Newberry Museum is a non-profit educational organization that serves to protect, preserve, present, and promote the ongoing history and heritage of Newberry County and College.

Our History

The Taylor building, dating back to 1911, was designed by supervising architect James Knox Taylor. The building served as the city of Newberry's post office until the 1960s. Today the Taylor building has been renovated to house the museum.
