Downers Grove Historical Society Review

Nice rotating exhibits. Good library with well organized files for researching Downers Grove history and ancestors.

Grwt for the local history buff. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Great place to get the feel of 1890's living. Good personal history of the "Downer" Family & marriage ties.

Great place with local history. Important explanation of Indian boundary line.

If you live in the western suburbs and have an interest in history, I would recommend it! The museum provides a quaint and eye opening view into the history of Downers Grove and the impact the original settlers had on the the foundation of the Western Suburbs.

A nice little local museum. You can tell it's getting started and still getting it's footing. Meet with the curator, Zach, and he gave us a personal tour of both buildings. Had a very good time. Looking forward to their holiday displays.

Visited on a weekday afternoon. Quiet but nice. Beautiful grounds. The curator was nice and have us a personal tour. Zach was his name, I think. I really enjoyed the exhibit in the barn taking about the local history and finding of Downers Grove.

Self-guided, read-it-yourself tour. Beautiful house and grounds
