The Clarke County
Historical Association, founded in 1939, operates a museum & archives in the
Coiner House at 32 East Main Street in Berryville, & owns the 18th century
Burwell-Morgan Mill, the Miller's House, & the historic Tollhouse in
Millwood, Virginia.
•
Our newly opened museum celebrates the rich social and agricultural history
of Clarke County. Through two extraordinary films and the many artifacts on
display, the museum tells the unique story of a county where “Our Land Is
Our Legacy.” Museum hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 11-4 p.m. Admission
is free, and donations are welcome.
• Our Berryville headquarters also includes a dedicated area where researchers can pore over our extensive archive collection. CCHA members and Clarke County residents are invited to use the archives for free. Others are asked to pay a $5 usage fee.
•
In Millwood, restoration of the great water wheel & wooden gears of the
Burwell-Morgan Mill has been completed, and the mill is fully operational.
Volunteer millers grind every Saturday from May through November, continuing
a 200-year legacy of service to the county in one of the great industrial
landmarks of Virginia. (The Mill is closed after
Thanksgiving through the end of April).
• The Mill is also the site of the semi-annual Art at the Mill, a
tremendously popular event
showcasing the work of some 300 artists each
spring & fall. A portion of the sales support
the Association & the ongoing
maintenance & operation of the Mill.
Please browse our
site and then visit our Museum and Mill to take a hands-on historical tour
through beautiful Clarke County!
