About this place

A local history museum in downtown Valparaiso with free admission year-round. The collections focus on Porter County's past through exhibits and public programs, and the museum hosts guided tours of current displays. Families visit to learn about the region's heritage, including stories of the county fair that has run since 1851. The building itself dates from 1871 and formerly served as the county jail.

If you are a member here

A membership to Porter County Museum carries reciprocal admission, so the same card is worth free or discounted entry at other places in this program.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
