The St. Cloud Heritage Museum is operated by the Woman's Club of St. Cloud and the City of St. Cloud. The library was built by the Woman's Club in 1922 and named in honor of the American Civil War veterans who founded St. Cloud. It was designed by Ida Annah Ryan and Isabel Roberts, who formed the first all-female architectural firm in Orlando. The building previously served as the town's library for more than 50 years before being purchased by the City of St. Cloud in 2001.

The museum was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on August 3, 2020 as the Veterans Memorial Library and Woman's Club of St. Cloud Auditorium.[1]
