HSPBC - Historical Society of Palm Beach County

The Historical Society of Palm Beach County (HSPBC), established in 1937, is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to collect, preserve, and share the rich history and cultural heritage of Palm Beach County.

The HSPBC’s Richard and Pat Johnson Palm Beach County History Museum opened to the public in March 2008 in the historic 1916 Palm Beach County Courthouse, 300 North Dixie Highway, in downtown West Palm Beach, Florida. The countywide history museum enriches the lives of children and adults alike by making local history accessible, interesting, and meaningful. The museum contains two permanent galleries and one temporary gallery for long-term exhibits on the courthouse's second floor. It also rotates temporary exhibits in the historic courtroom on the third floor.
