Built in the 1850s, the elegant Bristol Statehouse has been transformed from a government building to a bustling venue for local historic education, including an expansive library and computer resource area for local elementary school students. It has hosted such dynamic happenings as a production of the evolution-themed play "Inherit the Wind," a lecture on nearby Juniper Hill Cemetery by a father-and-son historian/arborist team, and living history programs for children. It lies in the heart of town, just a few blocks southeast of Independence Park.
