Mt. Pleasant is home to historic Relic Home located at 150 South State, which houses a wide array of well-preserved artifacts from times gone by. Visitors are known to have traveled from locales far away to catch just a glimpse of what life used to be like.

Local residents seeking to know more about history of the area drop in along with school students for arranged tours.

The museum will be open on weekdays from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m., and will be open on May 29 — Memorial Day, July 4th and special occasions by appointment for family reunions, youth groups and class reunions.

The blacksmith shop is open and a blacksmith is on-site for special occasions. The blacksmith shop is unique as it is the only operational shop in the area.

The Relic Home is not just a house full of relics, but one full of family histories, pictures and information on many sites, including cemetery information and special features of older homes in town and their histories.

The Relic Home is open most afternoons, but special arrangements may be made by calling Judith Jackson, (435) 462-3760; Judy Standlee, (435) 632-6633.
