The Walton's Museum, in Nelson County is a special blend of history, nostalgia and entertainment. The same building young Earl Hamner, Jr. attended school, now houses replicas of sets from the The Waltons, the memorable television series he created. Step back in time and memory to John-Boy's bedroom, the Waltons' kitchen and living room and Ike Godsey's store, which also serves as the museum's gift shop.

Open daily from the first Saturday in March through the last Sunday in November. Closed Easter, Thanksgiving and the last Saturday in September. Near Wintergreen Resort and Blue Ridge Mountains. 

In addition to stepping back in time with the Walton’s, Walton’s Mountain Museum also offers space for meetings and other gatherings.  Total meeting space available is a 1,600 sq. ft. auditorium with maximum banquet and reception style seating of 200.  Meeting space is handicapped accessible.  For additional information or to make a reservation, call 434-831-2000.

 

 Opens for the 2020 Season on March 7, 2020.
