Kern County Museum

In addition to the many displays of Bakersfield history, walking through the park, visitors will see an early doctor's office, jail, Wells Fargo, gas station, hospital, and many other frontier buildings. With exhibits ranging from oil to fashion in old Bakersfield, there is something for everyone.

We hope you enjoy our work.

Please support this magazine of trusted historical writing, now in its 75th year, and the volunteers that sustain it with a donation to American Heritage.
