The Carnegie building served from 1902 to 2005 as the Crawfordsville Public Library. Museum visitors are now able to view the building in its restored glory. The original floors containing mosaic tile from 1902 are visible on the 2nd level.
Owned and operated by the Crawfordsville District Public Library, the purpose of the Carnegie Museum is an interdisciplinary museum of Montgomery County and for the people of Montgomery County. It contains history, art, science, and culture. The two-story museum houses six galleries with various themes and a rotating exhibition schedule within those themes. Other galleries include the Business & Industry Gallery, which features both past and present businesses of the county. The Athens Gallery will focus on literature, learning, arts & culture, military and democracy. Other galleries cover Sports & Pop Culture, Montgomery County highlights, and Early History.
The museum is located at 222 S. Washington Street (US 231), two blocks south of the courthouse. Parking is located behind the building.
