Our mission is to bring people together to share, celebrate and learn about Norway's heritage through collecting, caring for and exhibiting Norway's historical treasures. We facilitate the collection of and research into family and local history and provide a variety of programs to engage people of all ages. We have extensive holdings of local family genealogies, local newspapers dating from the 1
860s, obituaries, and other local records. We appreciate advance notice, if possible. If you are unable to come to the museum, we will search appropriate records for the information you seek and provide copies to you. There is no charge for the first hour of research; however, requests that take longer than an hour, or lengthy, ongoing requests will be charged a $25/hour fee after the initial hour of research. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at [email protected]. We are dedicated to preserving the history of Norway and the great contributions of its citizens.
