Exhibit Hours and Important Info

Please note:  The Clay County History Museum (wing of building attached to the 1890 Historic Courthouse) is not maintained or staffed by Clerk’s Office, Archives, or Teen Court staff.  However, amazing Historical Society volunteers man the museum whenever it is open to the public or when special events are held.

Except for holiday periods, exhibits are open weekly on Fridays (10am-1pm) and Sundays (2 PM – 5 PM). Historical Society volunteers provide staffing and are available for scheduled tours at other times. For additional information call (904)284-9644.

Our Archives Specialist, a Clay County Clerk of Court and Comptroller’s Office member, is on-site during most normal weekday business hours and is the main point of contact once you arrive. If you are making a special trip or driving a long distance, please call first to make sure our staff will be there to welcome you. The Archives office is inside the Old County Jail, which sits at the intersection of Gratio Place and Idlewild Avenue (SR 16).

Parking

Regular parking and handicapped parking spaces are available from the Archives/Old Jail entrance. Additional parking is available between the Old Jail and the storage building and across Walnut Street next to the Clay County School Board building.

Public Notice - Main Courthouse

If you visit the Clay County Courthouse in Green Cove Springs over the weeks and months ahead, you will notice renovation projects happening here  – but all services remain available.

  • Construction/renovation began this week on the 2nd Floor (new side) – expect noise related to that work for several months (up to a year).
  • Contractors/vendors will enter/exit the courthouse regularly throughout the day, so parking in the area may be challenging – arrive early for any appointments.
  • Our Orange Park Branch and online options are available, as are other service options.
  • During September, renovation projects in Administration, Civil, and Clerk’s Finance (1st Floor) areas may temporarily alter those office/staff locations in the building, so pay special attention to security staff directions and signage.

Thank you for your patience during this time of improvement. Please keep an eye out for updates throughout the months ahead.
