When you visit the DeWitt County Museum this year, you'll want to be sure to check out the nine-foot tower clock just inside the front door of the CH Moore Homestead.

Executive Director of the CH Moore Homestead, Joey Woolridge, told Regional Radio News Wednesday morning on the WHOW Morning Show, the tower clock was on display when the museum opened for the season on April 1.

According to Woolridge, this clock was used to synchronize the watches of the locals working on the railroad. She calls it a beautiful piece of history to greet their visitors this year.

The DeWitt County Museum is now open for the season. You can stop in for a tour of the CH Moore Homestead Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm and then Sundays from 1 pm to 5 pm at 219 East Woodlawn Street.
