Growing up I remember McDonald’s was just as exciting to go to as it is for adults to go to Costco. So when I came across an email promoting the movie “The Founder,” I thought nothing of it until the words San Bernardino caught my eye and I wondered, “what movie could possibly be made about my hometown?” Come to find out San Bernardino is the location of the first McDonald’s restaurant! Having discovered this I looked it up and found out that the restaurant is now an independently owned museum dedicated to McDonald’s memorabilia—and this of course meant I had to pay a visit to this historic landmark.
If you enjoy learning about history, this might be a place you’d like to see. Above are a few pictures of the mural that is painted on the wall of the building. There are a bunch of fun facts written on the mural, telling mini stories about events and things that occurred in San Bernardino County. What historical places exist in your hometown?
