About this place

The museum houses collections of local artifacts and owns several historic buildings, including an 1843 log cabin, an 1885 former town hall, and a restored early-20th-century cabin. Families can visit the buildings, explore the exhibits, and take part in educational programs designed to show the region's history. The museum shop sells books and items related to McHenry County.

If you are a member here

A membership to McHenry County Historical Society and Museum carries reciprocal admission, so the same card is worth free or discounted entry at other places in this program.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
