The Historic Henry County Courthouse now houses the Martinsville-Henry County Heritage Center and Museum in the portion of the building that was formerly the Henry County Circuit Court Clerk’s Office. On display in the Collectors Gallery are antique toys from the collection of Dr. Mervyn King and dollhouses crafted by Coila S. De Young and Eleanor Leath. The former Deed Room is now home to a timeline of the history of Martinsville and Henry County featuring artifacts, photographs and articles on Native American fish weirs, the Civil War, tobacco and local industries. We are adding to our displays daily so there will be something new for everyone to enjoy. Admission is free.
Open Tues.-Fri. 10 am to 5 pm
Sat. 10 am to 3 pm
