Explore the intricacies of Kansas's largest county at the Johnson County Museum. From its early beginnings as a Shawnee Indian Nation Reservation to its hey-day years as suburban enclaves to today's economic engine in the metropolitan Kansas area, Johnson County's history is full of depth and surprises. The hildren's gallery Kidscape provides fun for younger visitors to explore. Located in our new home in the iconic mid-century King Louie Bowling Center & Ice Chateau, the museum celebrates 50 years as a community museum this year!
