Company Profile

Heritage Village Museum & Park

Company Overview

Heritage Village is a 21-acre public park owned and operated by Pinellas County Government’s Parks & Conservation Resources Department. Serving Pinellas residents, the Tampa Bay region, and the state since 1976, the museum is located within the 182-acre Pinewood Cultural Park complex. This unique campus also includes the Florida Botanical Gardens and Creative Pinellas. Heritage Village serves as an important anchor within this complex. Together, these organizations provide visitors with a dynamic experience that includes history, art, and nature. The mission of Heritage Village is to inspire exploration of Pinellas County’s story by designing unique programs and exhibits, facilitating research, and collecting and preserving local history.

Heritage Village includes over twenty-eight historic structures and features from across Pinellas County, as well as two gallery spaces. As the county’s local history museum, staff are entrusted with the preservation, maintenance, and care of these historic structures and the museum’s collections. As visitors stroll along the pathways that meander through the park, they encounter historic homes and structures that representatively span both the temporal and geographical history of the county. These structures range from the 1924 Gandy Tower that signaled the entrance to the Gandy Bridge, the first bridge across the Bay to connect the cities of St. Petersburg and Tampa; to an 1850s log cabin from Clearwater’s founding families and the oldest extant structure in the county; to a 1930s sponge warehouse from Tarpon Springs.
