Good forHistory buffsArts & culture lovers

The Carnegie Library building on Monterey Street has been holding this city's memory since 1905. Today it houses the San Luis Obispo County Historical Society & Museum, with rotating exhibits that move across the county's long arc — Chumash heritage, the rancho period, American settlement. San Luis Obispo carries more than two centuries of layered history, and this is where the documentary record lives. Admission is free.
