The Red Barn is the former dairy barn of the old County Hospital and stands proudly as a dominant landmark along Mountain Ranch Road. The Red Barn Museum showcases Calaveras County’s rich history in agriculture, mining, logging, and ranching. Actual mining carts, farm wagons, and other donated objects make up the elaborate displays. Many of the displays were made possible through the help and donations of community members and local businesses. We thank everyone involved for their continued support.
