Amidst the golf courses and historic southern charm of Augusta, Georgia, Pexcho’s American Dime Museum spotlights the unique and unusual. Peter Excho opened the museum in 2019 as a recreation of a late-1800s “dime museum” containing sideshow memorabilia, natural history artifacts, and fascinations.
Order a coffee in the lobby cafe for a sneak peek at the circus sideshow oddities and other historic curiosities. For the full experience, make an appointment for a fascinating guided tour that concludes with a sword-swallowing demonstration. The museum also contains a theater that occasionally hosts burlesque and sideshow performers as well as the Rocky Horror Picture Show tribute.
