About Thorp Area Historical Museum

The museum has a collection of antique and colored dishes, clothing, home furnishings, children's toys, quilts and other needle work.  There are numerous collections of old publications, family histories and yearbooks plus a wide range of items which are on private loan to the museum. 

Special theme rooms show how people and industry cooperated in the development of the Thorp area. It is utter delight for a family historian to visit such a treasure trove of information and spend a leisurely afternoon exploring past generation of the area.  There is something of interest in every corner!
