About Coquille Valley Museum

The Coquille Valley Museum is run by the Coquille Valley Historical Society. Its stated purpose is to gather, protect, and show historic objects and records about the valley and the people who worked and lived there. The museum gives special attention to the wood products industry, dairy farming, coal mining, and the river once used for transport. The museum is renovating its building, and visitors can see exhibits on Saturdays during the renovation period. The museum also seeks volunteers for docent, storyteller, and genealogist roles and offers individual, family, and business memberships.
