"A SINCERE EFFORT TO PRESERVE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS THE WAY OF LIFE AS EXPERIENCED BY OUR FOREFATHERS WHO CARVED OUT OF THE WILDERNESS THIS WONDERFUL COUNTRY WE KNOW AND ENJOY TODAY."

-Harvey and Bernice Jones

 

 

 

 

 

        

Har-Ber Village is one of the largest antique museums in the United States, located on the shores of Grand Lake O' The Cherokees in Grove, Oklahoma.  Built as a gift to the public from Harvey and Bernice Jones, Har-Ber Village is a reconstructed turn-of-the century village of over one hundred buildings and collections.

  

Har-Ber Village is a place from which dreams are made.  There is something to see and enjoy for people of all ages.  From March thru November of each year approximately one-half million tourists visit buildings and displays containing a multitude of American antiques.  1993 marked the 25th Anniversary of it's founding, and the Village is still growing.

  

As you walk along the paths and among the log cabins, consider the enormous effort it took to make the village a reality.  Then consider that this village came about because of the love and devotion two Americans had for each other and for our heritage.  Not only did they spend their money, but they spent thousands of hours attending auctions, sorting and selecting articles and placing each piece, one by one, in its proper place.  Now consider that this was all done in their spare time and on weekends.

   
Like others before you, I am sure that as you move from station to station you will begin to realize the personal touch of Harvey and Bernice Jones on each display.  We hope you will enjoy the sights as much as we do.
 
Har-Ber Village is truly a preservation of the past for today and future generations.
