Heritage Park Village
Heritage Park offers a unique collection of community history showcasing the lives and traditions of generations from residents of Macclenny and Baker County Florida.
Baker County, established in 1883 in northeast Florida and The City of Macclenny was later incorporated 1885. Macclenny was originally called Darbyville, but the town was later renamed in 1885 for its founder, H.C. Macclenny, who owned large tracts of land in the vicinity. Macclenny and Baker County is an area rich with history and traditions. Many of our area's current residents are direct descendants of the pioneering families that settled here in the 1800s. The legacy of those families and their traditions can be found in some the exhibits and mini-museums inside Heritage Park Village.
Come and leisurely stroll along the sidewalks that wind past exhibits and mini-museums. Each museum showcases exhibits highlighting this unique slice of Florida community history including the county's fascinating moonshine era. In the beautifully restored Burnsed Blockhouse, the last of its kind remaining in the state of Florida, get an up close look at the architecture of early pioneer life. Note the rough, hand-hewn timbers, rambling outdoor porches and detached country kitchen with its chimney constructed of moss and mud.
Enjoy a picnic in one of several covered pavilions or relax in the gazebo of the beautifully landscaped Serenity Gardens. Playground equipment is located towards the backside of the park and visitor restrooms are located at near the front of the park next to the depot and caboose.
