The History and the Mystery

Presented by Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens

A fire at Columbus City Hall in 1921 destroyed local records, creating gaps in the history of Franklin Park and the Conservatory. This new exhibition, researched and developed by Conservatory staff, shares and challenges accepted facts and oral histories of the institution's past, and reveals the way in which the community, Franklin Park, and the Conservatory have developed together over the past 150 years. Ten interactive stations invite visitors to explore the past and share stories,memories and mementos of their own history with the Conservatory.
