About Louisville Historical Museum

The Louisville Historical Museum presents the town's early history and growth from 1878 to 1955 through permanent exhibits in three historic buildings. Visitors can also explore an interactive online timeline covering Louisville's story from recent years back to its archaeological past. Tours, programs, and events are offered without charge, and the museum participates in the Museums for All program to keep history accessible. Service dogs are welcome, and staff advise calling ahead for accessibility accommodations.
