Many historical items from homes, businesses, schools and the community are on display. The museum features a military, school and music room and a room with furnishings depicting a home in the early 1900's. Visitors will also enjoy a ten minute video on the history of Granville. The museum also has a genealogy collection with many family records as well as cemetery documents of the Granville area.
