Welcome to the Carver County Historical Society (CCHS)!

The long awaited redesign of the Veterans' Gallery has begun. It has been the dream of CCHS staff to give the Veterans' Gallery a Carver County voice, telling the stories the artifacts holds within their recesses. Follow our progress on our blog. It is estimated that the gallery construction will cost approximately $15,000. The Carver County Historical Society is looking for donors to sponsor sections of the display. Donors may choose which section they would like to sponsor and a plaque noting sponsorship will be included in the gallery. Any amount you feel you can give is appreciated. Please help us create a memorial to those who have served.

     

The Generations Project, an oral history project, was featured on the WCCO program Finding Minnesota on Sunday, April 5. Click here to view the video and read the story. The "Barns of Carver County" DVDs are now available at the Carver County Historical Society for $14.50; member copies available for $13.
