About E. R. Porter Hardware Museum
The E. R. Porter Hardware Museum in downtown Dothan, Alabama, preserves a former hardware store that operated from 1889 to 2014. It is kept largely as it stood when business ended, showcasing a working retail environment rather than a recreated period room. Visitors can see original retail fixtures, hardware, work tools, and household metal goods within the two-story yellow brick building. The museum highlights the store's history as one of Alabama’s oldest operating hardware stores and Dothan's oldest continuously operating business in the same building.
