LAKE OF THE WOODS COUNTY

Lake of the Woods

County Historical Society

The Lake of the Wood’s Historical Society’s County Museum connects visitors with the area’s colorful past from geology and natural history to early peoples, fur trade, settlement and the development of industries and communities. Exhibits also capture more recent events that helped to shape the county — the Great Forest Fire of 1910, the construction of the International Bridge and the birth of Willie Walleye. The museum library and archives offer a variety of record holdings and we welcome researchers and genealogists.
