The Barber County Heritage Center 

Museum

Our museum facility is currently in it's developmental stage.

When completed, it will house an historic representation

from each of the eight incorporated cities in Barber County, 

as well as general historical information and memorabilia

from all over Barber County.

The museum will also be home to a permanent exhibit

featuring Barber County native and country music artist, Martina McBride.

The "Martina McBride Gallery" will showcase items from the singer's 

early years in Barber County as well as her recording career.

We plan to host a variety of traveling exhibits and other

displays of interest to those visiting the South Central Kansas region.

One of the most prized museum attractions is our extensive video library 

of Barber County Pioneers.

In recorded video interviews, Barber County citizens, 

tell their very personal stories of life in this part of Kansas 

over the past 100 years.  

These interviews provide a wealth of accurate, 

first-hand historical information about our community and how it has 

grown and changed over the generations.

Many of these Pioneers are no longer with us, making these recorded 

personal histories even more valuable.

Our primary goal at The Heritage Center Museum

is to preserve and share our Barber County history

in an interesting and informative way.
