Recognized in 2010 as “Volunteer Institution of the Year” by the Illinois Association of Museums, Tiskilwa Historical Society offers six galleries of a hands-on experience with Tiskilwa’s colorful past: Native American artifacts, village, military and school memorabilia, Hennepin Canal construction photos, old farm implements, early domestic items and quite a bit more.

 

Visit our Museum on Main “Where the past is present” on Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Or, if you can't make it to Tiskilwa on a Saturday, just call our president, Ed, at 815.646.4016 and he'll meet you at the museum.  

You’ll easily spot our Main Street museum on the south side of Tiskilwa’s three-block business district. In case you’re concerned when you see the 25 steps of the former Methodist Church building (where our museum is housed), don’t worry – our facility is handicapped accessible.
