There’s Never Been a Better Time to Become a Member of the Door County Historical Society

This year, we celebrate something extraordinary: 100 years of preserving, sharing, and protecting Door County’s history.

For a century, the Door County Historical Society has safeguarded the stories, buildings, artifacts, and memories that make this peninsula unlike anywhere else. Generations before us believed our history was worth saving. Because of them, we can walk through Heritage Village, climb the tower at Eagle Bluff Lighthouse, and experience the places where our community’s story unfolded.

Now, it’s our turn.

There has never been a better time to become a member of the Door County Historical Society.

Be Part of the Celebration — and the Future

Membership isn’t just about benefits (though there are plenty of those). It’s about belonging to one of Door County’s oldest and most respected organizations — and helping us prepare for the next 100 years.

When you become a member, you are:

• Preserving historic buildings like Eagle Bluff Lighthouse and the structures at Heritage Village
• Supporting educational programs for children and adults

A Community That Cares About History

For 100 years, this organization has been powered by people who care deeply about preserving our past. We’ve weathered wars, economic shifts, changing tourism trends, and evolving communities — and through it all, we’ve continued to grow.

Today, we are restoring historic structures, expanding programming, and increasing access to our sites more than ever before. The momentum is strong. The vision is clear. And the future is bright.

But none of it happens without members.
