The Manchester Historical Museum was founded in 1886 as the Manchester Historical Society “to serve the entire community through the preservation of irreplaceable town records and artifacts, its research capability and commitment to education”. The society moved in 1925 into its headquarters, the Trask House which is included in the National Register of Historic Places. In 2014, the organization changed its name to Manchester Historical Museum and adopted a new logo to reflect our mission to share our treasures and operate more as a museum instead of just an historical society.
