Robeson County History Museum

The museum is housed in the reconstructed historic Southern Express Building along the banks of the Lumber River. The iron-front building was constructed about 1910 across the street from the railroad depot by the late NC Gov. Angus W. McLean in the heart of Lumberton’s business district. The museum highlights interesting events in Robeson County’s history with artifacts from early geological times to the present. Exhibits show the natural resources, transportation, agricultural, commercial, military, social and cultural history of the area. The museum’s goal is to tell the story of the county with permanent and changing exhibits
