About the Neenah Historical Society
The Mission of the Neenah Historical Society is to collect, preserve, and share the stories of our community.
Our offices are located in Neenah’s historic Ward House at 343 Smith Street. Click on the link for more information about the Ward House.
We also own the Hiram Smith Octagon House at 347 Smith Street. This house, built in the 1850s, is on the National Register of Historic Places. It is one of a handful of octagon houses in Wisconsin. Learn more about the Hiram Smith Octagon House. The museum is open by appointment during the winter. Directions and a map can be found here.
Please visit our Native American display in the lobby and south hallway of City Hall (at 211 Walnut Street). You can view the exhibit during regular City Hall office hours.
