The native limestone flour and grist mill built by Barnard in 1860 still stands on the banks of the Paluxy River just west of the town square. Barnard's Mill was the first building at the site that is now Glen Rose, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

During most of the 1850s and early 1860s the Barnard's Mill settlement was a part of Johnson County. In 1866 the area was included in a new county, Hood, marked off entirely from Johnson County.

This museum features 12 rooms filled with over 200 original works of art including oils paintings, etchings, artifacts, watercolors, and bronzes.
