About Faulkner County Museum

The Faulkner County Museum occupies an older stone and brick building on Courthouse Square in the center of Conway, the county seat. The two-story structure has a stuccoed finish and a square tower with a pyramidal roof. It began as the county jail, later served as the county library for decades, and was then converted into a museum. The county government website lists the museum among its departments.
