Activity Overview
The Vacaville Museum is a small, pleasant museum which delves into the history of the town with which it shares its name while also exploring the cultural past of the rest of Solano County at the same time. The Museum's view extends to all racial groups in the County with recent exhibitions on Latin American and African culture. While a trip here will not fill your day it is an interesting way to spend a bit of time, plus if you are a local you are sure to learn a few things about the place you call home!
Things to Do
