Union Bank Building Description
Reputedly the oldest surviving bank building in the state, the Union Bank originally opened in 1841 to finance cotton plantations. However, it closed two years later due to a combination of crop failure, financial mismanagement and the Seminole Wars. In 1984, the Union Bank opened as an extension of the Florida A&M University Black Archives, Research Center and Museum. Exhibits related to the bank's history along with period furnishings are displayed as well as artifacts and cultural items related to black history.
