Welcome to the Grundy County Museum

Stepping through the doors is a step back in time.

The Museum boasts an extensive collection of letters, uniforms, weapons, toys, tools, machinery, equipment, photographs, furniture, and details about the lives, achievements, and challenges of our county's leaders and citizens.

Step into the technology of yesteryear and envision your existence in one of the "time capsule" rooms. It was an era unlike any other... come and witness it for yourself.

"The things that are common to me, because I grew up with them, are new to our youngsters. I had no idea the Baker School one-room schoolhouse would be such a hit. That's why we must preserve our memories and history for our grandchildren and future generations."

Dewayne Marlay, former Board President
