The Valentine

For 125 years, the Valentine has been collecting, preserving and interpreting Richmond Stories™. We are the only museum focused on the history and culture of the region.

Located in the heart of historic downtown, the Valentine offers many unique experiences to plan your visit around that challenge and inspire while sparking joy and wonder.

But we are so much more than a museum! The Valentine provides a shared place for our diverse community and those who visit Richmond to pursue understanding and truth together by creating opportunities for honest conversations that are both challenging and enjoyable.
