The Safety Harbor area has long been an ideal place to live. From the earliest peoples (20,000 B.C.E.) who hunted giant mammals on a peninsula twice the size of present day Florida, to the present city of dedicated preservationists, Safety Harbor has an impressive history.


The Safety Harbor Museum and Cultural Center is home to exhibits that display city and regional history. Artifacts date back to prehistoric times and help to tell the story of Safety Harbor. It is managed by the City of Safety Harbor and the Safety Harbor Museum of Regional History.  The center also offers a multitude of activities that celebrate the history of Safety Harbor while welcoming the growing arts community.

Take the 10,000 Years of History Tour. This docent guided tour explores 10,000 years of regional and Tampa Bay history. Learn about the Spanish exploration of Safety Harbor, the Tocobaga Indians, Pinellas County's first white settlers, and Florida during the Civil War, including the hardships of being a soldier. This tour is available to groups of 40 or more and costs $5 per person.
