Pioneer Park

Pioneer Park has many great exhibits and displays. The museum is currently made up of nine structures: the Old Trade Center , the Ruth Purdy Speake Cabin, the Taylor Whatley Building , the Blacksmith Shop , Doctor McLain’s Office, the Loachapoka Gin Office, the Cook House and a reconstruction of the Loachapoka Jail . A band stand is used for outdoor concerts, entertainment, and classes. Recently, several gardens have been added to Pioneer Park to complement living history activities. The most recent addition is the Barnard-Newell Log House along with its Native American Garden. Maintained by the Lee County Historical Society, Pioneer Park is just a few minutes away from the Auburn-Opelika area.
