The Gulf Beaches Historical Museum is located on the grounds of the first church of the local barrier islands. Built in 1917 of rusticated block, the Pass-a-Grille Community Church was a staple of the growing island town throughout the years. But in 1959 it’s membership outgrew the small building, and a new church was built on 16th Avenue in the Pass-a-Grille area of St. Pete Beach.
