Bringing Edmonds’ Past to Life
The Edmonds Historical Museum invites visitors to explore the stories, people, and moments that shaped Edmonds and the surrounding region.
Founded in 1973 by local volunteers, our private nonprofit museum is dedicated to preserving and sharing community history through engaging
exhibits
, research, and educational programs.
We are located in Edmonds’ historic 1910 Carnegie Library building at 118 5th Avenue North. Our building served as the local library from 1911 until 1962 and later housed the City’s Parks and Recreation Department. On August 3, 1973, it reopened as the Edmonds Historical Museum.
Today, our museum stewards our growing collection of more than 26,000 artifacts, documents, and photographs that tell the story of Edmonds and greater south Snohomish County to ensure these stories are shared for generations to come.
