About Seven Springs Museum at the Historic Bodiford House

The museum occupies a two-story Queen Anne house whose original core dates to the 1800s. The City of Powder Springs bought the home in 2014, and it opened as a museum after renovation. Exhibits include Native American artifacts and Civil War relics found locally, kitchen tools used by early settlers, and a history of the town's early settlers and railroads. Displays also cover a thread mill that revived the local economy, the museum's founder, a gallery of mid-to-late 1800s items, and farm equipment in the carriage house.
