Who We Are

Preserving Cridersville’s History for Future Generations

Our Mission

Our Mission is to save our local heritage for future generations. We do this through exhibits at our museum, public education programs, and activities with local students.


Our Story

The Cridersville Historical Society was established in 1987 when the Bowsher Family donated the fully restored Daniel and Catherine Bowsher Log Home on East Main Street. In 1990, the Society purchased the former EUB Church on W. Sugar Street and has continued to grow through the gifts of artifacts, photographs, and documents from our community.
