MIAMI COUNTY

The Miami County Historical Society & Museum was founded in 1965 and is a non-profit 501 (c) 3 corporation located in Paola, Kansas, and staffed solely by volunteers. Celebrating over fifty years of preserving Miami County history, the Museum is committed to collecting and preserving artifacts and information that document Miami County's deep and rich heritage and to the production of interpretive exhibits, educational programs, and publications... More than 6,000 square feet of surprises await visitors to the Miami County Historical Museum. It is dedicated to telling the "Story of Us," a history of Miami County. Located just south of the Kansas City Metro area, Miami County's rich history is on display, from prehistoric life to early settlements; from the plight of Native Americans to the struggle surrounding Slavery, from Christian Missions evolving into small-town Americana.
