Fall Creek Historical Society
100 years at Fall Creek May 26 2006 09702

The Fall Creek Historical Society was organized in 1974 at a time when the whole country was getting into an "Historical" frame of mind brought on by the American Bicentennial celebration.

In 1976 a small log cabin was built in Randall Park at the corner of Lincoln Avenue (Highway 12) and Liberty Street.  By 1990 the small cabin could no longer hold all the artifacts collected by the group and plans were begun for the erection of a larger building.  See picture of museum as it looks today

Exhibits in the museum depict scenes from Fall Creek's past, including a dressmaker shop, a photographer's studio, a doctor's office, a store, a church and a school room. The original log cabin houses an old kitchen and laundry room. A special display features Ron Schultz, a long time and much honored football and basketball coach.

Built in historic Randall Park right on Highway 12, the museum houses any items relating to Fall Creek's history, but will be of interest to anyone. A smaller building features old-time kitchen and wash house artifacts.

Randall Park Museum and the Menge House Museum will be open on Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00-4:00 PM through Labor Day weekend.
