Experience the Elliott Museum and The House of Refuge … Two unique museums right in your backyard!
Located on beautiful Hutchison Island since 1961, The Elliott Museum is like no other. And that has never been truer than right now! King Tut is currently being featured at the Elliott until May 31, 2024. Designed expressly for the Elliott Museum by the Egyptian Art Museum of Cairo, Egypt, this extraordinary exhibit features 57 items and 70 pieces and has transformed 5,000 sq' of the Main Gallery into a showcase for the young king's treasures.
After enjoying King Tutankhamun, walk among impressive and highly collectible antique cars … stop and talk a selfie! You can also select a car to view from over 50 vehicles in our 3-level car-racking system which is the only one of its kind in an American museum. Explore the glory of baseball with more than 600 signed baseball cards, nearly 200 signed baseballs and 11 game-used bats making our collection the 2nd largest exhibit of signed baseball memorabilia outside Cooperstown.
Fresh and intriguing historical and artistic displays are featured throughout our beautiful 50,000 sq' museum. Discover the Foucault Pendulum, The Elliott Story, Art Down the Hall, sculptures, bicycles, motorcycles, and our ever-popular Gift Store. Discover the beloved General Store from the late 1800's and early 1900's with its authentic old-time displays featuring an Apothecary Shop, Barber Shop, Ice Cream Soda Fountain, Post Office, and so much more. Kids will enjoy donning clothes children would have worn in the 1800-1900's while sitting at the old wooden desks with chalk boards. Relax and play a game of checkers while sitting on vintage ice cream chairs!
Add to your fun at the Elliott as you enjoy on-site dining and a full bar at the Tiki restaurant which offers live entertainment Tuesday through Saturday evenings. Looking for more, just a short ride (a mile and ½) on the Elliott Shuttle, you'll discover the 147-year-old House of Refuge, the oldest structure in Martin County. What an incredible history it has! Visit the museum and you can also snorkel or dive the wreck of Georges Valentine that ran aground in October 1904. The House of Refuge, built in 1876, is the only remaining of ten original houses of refuge built along the coast. It's been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974.
As one of the Top 10 Museums in the area, The Elliott is a must see! It is open 7 days a week, from 10am to 5pm. For more information visit www.hsmc-fl.com or call 772-225-1961.
