Museum Highlights: Rope Bed

The Madison-Morgan Cultural Center’s Museum collection is full of wonderful objects and artifacts historically significant to our region. During this time of physical distancing we have been inspired to share with you, over the next 10 months, a video series titled, "Museum Highlights”, featuring a historical object/s from our permanent collection each month. 

The seventh video in the Museum Highlights series provides a historical overview of the Rope Bed. The Rope Bed was the foundation of relative nighttime comfort throughout America during the 19th century. The Rope Bed is on display in the Madison-Morgan Cultural Center's Piedmont History Museum.

Please enjoy this month’s Museum Highlights!
