Run entirely by volunteers; donations always welcome. Admission prices: $5 for adults, $2 for ages 5-12, & free for children under 5. Come see us soon!
The museum is operated by the Van Buren County Historical Society, whose mission is "to encourage historical study and research, to collect and preserve historical material connected with the County of Van Buren and its vicinity, and to house such material where it may be suitably displayed and accessible to the general public."
As the mission statement indicates, the museum includes an archives room for individuals looking to conduct specific research. Yet with four floors filled with exhibits and artifacts, there is plenty to fascinate even the most casual visitor. Come see us and experience all we have to offer!
The museum is open to the public June through September, at hours posted on our main page, or by appointment. It welcomes school groups in May, however. Stay turned to this page for regular updates and fun facts, even during our off-season.
