This is a very small museum packed with all the history of Ocean View. If you've ever wanted to know anything about this district I highly recommend you stop by for a visit. The curator, Charles is a very nice and knowledgeable man. He can answer any questions you may have. I will be going back from time to time get a bit more knowledge of Ocean View!

I stopped in today to learn some local history and I’m so glad that I did! Charlie is a fantastic docent, very knowledgeable and friendly. I thoroughly enjoyed the museum and learning more about OV :)

If you have an hour to burn or if you would like to learn the history of Ocean View, I would HIGHLY recommend taking a trip to this free venue. The space is actually fairly small but is full of information. We were there for about an hour and looked at all the pictures, artworks, and historical information on display; but there is easily another few days worth of reading material and pictures available in books that are there to view.
The complete history of Ocean View is actually fascinating and, as I said before, recommend this place entirely. The staff is always happy to answer any questions and offer even more information than what is available in the exhibits.
They also have plenty of shirts and stickers available for sale.

History lovers or those who love Norfolk will find themselves captivated by this place. There are loads of pictures, facts to go with them, and they have some items significant to the history of Norfolk. My only complaint is it feels a little unorganized but that might just be me.

I love the history that this museum presents. It's quite charming and a must see as an Oceanview/Norfolk resident. I enjoyed speaking to a long time local that was able to share personal accounts of Oceanview's history!
