About the Museum
The Town of Granite Falls owns and maintains the Granite Falls History and Transportation Museum with the help
of the Granite Falls History Committee, which oversees maintenance, exhibits, and preservation of historical materials.
The museum is open from 2 until 4 p.m. on Sundays except on holiday weekends and at times when a volunteer is not
available. Persons wishing to visit the museum outside of the normal hours should call the town office at (828) 396-
3131 to make arrangements. There is no charge for admission, but there is a donations box for persons who wish to
help defray museum expenses.
The History Committee greatly appreciates the volunteers who keep the museum open, and we are actively seeking
additional people to help us reopen the museum on Saturday afternoons. We can only open on Sundays at the current
time because we do not have enough volunteers to be open on other days. Volunteers will receive training before
being assigned to serve one two hour shift each quarter. If you are interested, please call the town office at (828) 396-
3131.
