For the history buffs, Winter Garden features three historical museums, the History Center, Heritage Museum and last but not least the Railroad Museum, with more than enough information to absorb. It is here where you can read about the famous Historic Edgewater Hotel that opened on January 26th, 1927. The 80 year old Edgewater Hotel, located in Winter Garden, is still doing great today. The hotel once hosted the Washington Senators during their spring training season and famous movie stars like Clark Gable. In the late 1960's and early 1970's the hotel accommodated crews working on a little known construction project. Today we know that project as Disney World. The Winter Garden museums are open seven days a week for your convenience.

Winter Garden's own Garden Theatre, located on Plant Street, originally opened in 1935 as a movie theatre.

The Winter Garden's Garden Theatre is now open for business and features 297 seats. Check below for show times and information on shows. The Garden Theatre is graced with an art deco facade and a Spanish revival interior. The Romeo and Juliet balconies, blue arched ceilings and twinkling stars have all been restored.
