San Bernardino County Museum explores the natural and cultural history of the region from its Redlands campus.

Exhibitions connect local landscapes and communities with broader stories of movement, settlement and environmental change.
Check the museum’s current exhibition and program calendar before visiting, since talks, family activities and temporary displays can shape the experience. The main Redlands museum is separate from the county’s branch museums and historic properties, each with its own access arrangements. Allow time for the regional interpretation rather than expecting a museum focused solely on the city of San Bernardino.
