About Clarke County Museum

The Clarke County Historical Museum operates from the Alston-Cobb House in Grove Hill, Alabama. Built in 1854 by Dr. Lemuel Lovett Alston in the Greek Revival I-house style, the building is one of only four intact I-houses surviving in Clarke County. The museum also runs a bookstore. Its largest yearly event is Pioneer Day, a living history gathering featuring traditional crafts, demonstrations, and children's games, with a Creek hunting village set up on the grounds.
