The Mellen Museum, located in Mellen's historic City Hall built in the late 1800's, is a perfect way to spend a day enjoying Mellen and the surrounding area's rich history. Tours are self-guided and the Museum is open during regular City Hall hours every day, except holidays. Discover the past, visit the museum today, a place where history speaks to us who listen carefully.

Curator and Historical Society president, Mary Carol Granberg, puts out a great newsletter periodically with a little help from her friends, and it's full of updates at the museum, new display info, and a whole lot more about our past. For example, The Museum has a fabulous display on the former, and often long forgotten, Scott and Taylor Shingle Mill, located at what is now Copper Falls State Park, and which was featured in recent issue of The ECHO.

Located at City Hall at 102 East Bennett Avenue, the museum also just received a grant from The Mead Witter Foundation, Inc. for a new microfilm reader, scanner and printer. Now, past and present Mellenites have no excuse not to retrace their roots and make a day of it at the Museum.

From marvelous displays, to intense research though their archives, be there or be square...The Mellen Museum -- gateway to our past.
