Historic Museum

Pinal County Historical Museum
The Pinal County Historical Museum is a great first stop to help you explore historic Florence. Experience the authentic wild west excitement when you see the bullet holes from the famous 1888 shootout. Barbered wire, bullets, cactus furniture and the notorious prison display of hangman’s nooses join the cowboy and antique furnishings to give a complete picture of old Florence. Don’t miss the Gene Autry, Tom Mix and Prisoner of War Camp displays from a more recent era. Much of Arizona history is represented in Florence. Learn more at  the Pinal County Historical Museum.

Florence Historic Courthouse

Commonly known as the second Courhouse, the 1891 Courthouse was built during the towns "building boom" which followed the civil war. The new courthouse replaced the original adobe courthouse (now, McFarland State Park) for which could no longer accomodate the expanding government offices of a growing county.

Florence Woman's Club

Woman's Club

Founded in 1897 as the Ladies Village Improvement Society, the Florence Woman's Club was originally chartered in 1916 to serve the local community through encouragement of women of all ages to strive for excellence in six primary areas: beautification / conservation, arts, education, family, international and public affairs.  This Club is an original member of the Arizona Federation of Woman's Clubs (1901) and General Federation of Woman's Clubs (1903).  Following donation to the Club in 1914 of the property on which the FWC Clubhouse now stands at 231 North Willow Street in Florence, the membership continued the long term goal of raising the funds to build a Clubhouse which would also serve as a beautiful setting for family and community events.  Completed and dedicated October 11, 1929, the FWC Clubhouse has been a valuable community resource throughout its history, serving as a setting for USO Club, family and community celebrations, parties, charitable events as well as informational and business functions.  The 3697 square foot FWC Clubhouse, designed by Phoenix architectural firm Lescher & Mahoney in the Spanish Colonial Revival Style, is an all adobe structure and was placed on the National Registry of Historic Buildings in 1982.  Membership in FWC is open to women of all ages, backgrounds and cultures interested in advancing the best interests of our community as well as preserving our community heritage.  The Florence Woman's Club is a 501(c) 3 non-profit corporation.  It welcomes donations to both its scholarship and historic preservation funds."
