The North building was the original home of the Jewell County Historical Society, donated by Mr. & Mrs. Doc. Johnson. The South building was originally the Wint Smith Building which he willed to the Jewell County Historical Society.

The Jewell County Historical Society also has the old Jail at the North East corner of Center & Madison.
