Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
Florence was established as a railway hub roughly halfway between New York City and Miami and played a prominent role during the Civil War. Historians can visit the War Between the States Museum, the Florence Stockade and National Cemetery, and Veterans Park to learn more. There are many things to see and do in Florence. You can admire the art of William H. Johnson and other prominent artists at the Florence County Museum or attend a concert at either the Francis Marion University Performing Art Center or the Florence Little Theatre.
If you enjoy the great outdoors, you can hike along a trail system connecting Veterans Park and Timrod Park or try the canopy walk in the Lynches River Park. Foodies should definitely not miss the City Center Farmer’s Market and the annual Oktoberfest and the Pecan Festival.
