The F. T. Hill Museum was founded by Mr. Fred T. Hill who published the Weekly Courier in Riverhurst for 48 years. Mr. Hill had an extensive collection of guns, and native artifacts.  In 1963, Mr. Hill sold his collection to the Village of Riverhurst.  At that time the museum was located on Main Street.  In 2001 the Museum moved to its present location in the Village Square, formerly the Riverhurst School. The museum takes up the entire west side of the building and is wheelchair accessible.

Besides the collection of guns, and First Nations artifacts, the museum has a collection of rocks and fossils; antique furniture; tools used by the early settlers in the area; and many other interesting items.
