New Smyrna Museum of History occupies a former post-office building in the city’s historic center.

Exhibits connect local settlement, community life and changes along the Florida coast, offering context beyond a beach visit.
Check current exhibitions, admission and public hours before arriving at Sams Avenue. The photograph shows the museum exterior. Guided groups, educational programs and special events have separate arrangements, and holiday closures can alter ordinary hours. Allow time for interpretation of the area’s varied communities rather than expecting only a display about the modern resort town.
