About Us
Sitting on 1.45 acres, PCHS has the main museum and several auxiliary structures, including farm implements from Pinal County, a blacksmith shop, and the Town of Florence's actual 1953 and 1937 fire trucks. The museum covers Florence's rich history and cultural diversity, from prehistoric Native Americans to 21st-century local families who have lived, worked, and attended school, continuously enriching our collective stories.
Additionally, the museum houses a large and diverse research collection of records, books, and photographs from which exhibitions, programs, and events are created and provides opportunities for academic and community-based research. The most frequent research requests include information on Florence's 100+ properties on the National Register of Historic Places, Florence families, and the Second Territorial Prison located in Florence. Serving 5,000 visitors annually, PCHS Museum is an economic asset to Florence.
