Housed in the newly renovated Farmers State Bank Building (1911), the Williamson County Historical Museum is located in the historic district on the square in Georgetown. This Beaux Arts style building speaks of a vision for progress and success in the county. With the renovation of this historic structure, this same vision has continued. It is now renewed in the creation of a museum to preserve and interpret the unique stories of the county.
