Marco Island Historical Museum
The Marco Island Historical Museum is a beautiful site to visit in Naples, Florida. It's well known for the Key Marco Cat, a structure that has proven to be a remarkable find in the history of American archaeology.
The museum highlights features of the Calusa Indians of Southwest Florida. They've recreated a beautiful village scene that encourages viewership but also serves educational purposes. There is a whole room dedicated to the depiction of their daily lives.
There's a great list of permanent and traveling exhibits that structure the museum and it is welcoming to all ages. The settlement was founded to function as a pineapple plantation, a fishing village, and a clam cannery. The museum is filled with examples of things discovered from archaeological digs dating back to the late 1800's.
A current traveling exhibit you may come to find here is about women's tennis fashion. It aims to walk you through the fashion trends of the sport and how its progressed over time, but also how it has contributed to the success of female athletes.
What could be better than a museum on an island?
