The Museum & Welcome Center opened May 5, 2018 and is a starting point for exploring and discovering Fulton County, OH's natural, cultural and historical resources. The museum structure, which is a recreation of the first county courthouse, honors the pioneer families of the county by telling their stories (including the famous race car driver Barney Oldfield).

​

 The motto, "Find your way, or make your own way" becomes part of the entertaining, informative, and interactive journey of exploration through the museum's permanent and special exhibition galleries.
