Visit the original automobile from "The Beverly Hillbillies," and the complete Ozark history at The Ralph Foster Museum. Focused on the Ozarks as the subject of study and preservation, this museum was completed in 1991. Located two miles south of Branson in the
College of the Ozarks, this unique exhibit was started by Ralph Foster in the '20s. Foster, a radio enthusiast and pioneer, began the collections with small artifacts and helped it grow into the 40,000 square feet exhibit that stands today.
Thousands of items are housed in this feature museum, including firearms, antiques, wildlife, fine arts, mining and geological artifacts. Western and Native American artifacts are extensively displayed here as well. Enjoy the history and unique representation of the Ozarks at The Ralph Foster Museum in the
