Brown county historical museum consists of six buildings that have been faithfully preserved and relocated to our museum in beautiful downtown nashville, indiana. It includes the 1879 log jail, the dog trot barn, the 1898 doctors office, the pioneer log cabin, and the 1850s blacksmith shop. The construction of our new brown county history center was completed in 2015. It is adjacent to the pioneer village.
