At the turn of the 20th century, the Wiggins General Store served the early settlers to the area now known as Manatee County. Inside this building at Manatee Village you will find shelves filled with antiques. They make you feel like you just opened the door to history and are being greeted by King Wiggins who was the original storekeeper. Upstairs he ran a boardinghouse. It too has been lovingly preserved along with exhibits that explain what life was like back then.
