Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The Mandarin Museum and Historical Society preserves the regional cultural and civic history of Jacksonville's Mandarin neighborhood, which was founded in the 19th century as a citrus farming village and named for the popular orange variety of the same name. The historical society was originally founded in 1989 and opened its museum facility in 2004. Today, the free museum is open Saturdays during business hours, with the exception of major national holidays. Exhibits within the museum include displays of Civil War artifacts, works by Mandarin-area artists, and a collection of artifacts related to author Harriet Beecher Stowe. Outside within Walter Jones Historical Park, the museum also maintains the 1898 St. Joseph's Mission Schoolhouse for African-American Children, the 1875 Union Major William Webb Farmhouse, and the Losco Winery Building.
