Pipestone County Historical Society

Our Mission:

“The object of the Society is to  foster an awareness of Pipestone County’s history and its connection with the history of Minnesota, the region and nation, reflecting the belief that the study of the past can enrich people’s perspectives on the present and provide them guidance for the future.”

Membership

At PCHS membership is very important.  Members are what drive what we do and make it possible to accomplish. Members choose at what annual level they would like to support us.  They receive “The Prairie Traveler” our quarterly newsletter which is chocked full of great historic articles and information on our current events.  Members also receive Free Admission and Discounts on research and purchases in the gift shop.  We can’t do what we do without your support.
