Interesting history of the building and its architecture. However, the exhibits were just okay.

Questions & Answers

I am conducting research on agriculture during the American Revolution. Does the South Carolina Historical Society have any manuscirpt collections, letters, diaries, and contemporary newspapers that would inform my research. Thank you.

You would have to contact the museum. Local guides may not know the answer. I don't.

Are researchers allowed to visit now? What are your days and hours?
