Barona Cultural Center & Museum is dedicated to the interpretation of the Barona Band of Mission Indians history and larger Kumeyaay culture. The Museum's collection represents thousands of years of history - some objects dating as far back as 10,000 years - and demonstrates the artistry and skill of the hemisphere’s first inhabitants.
