Since 1910, the La Crosse County Historical Society has collected the books, documents, images, and artifacts that tell our story.

A few hundred artifacts are on display at the La Crosse Area Heritage Center, but most of the artifacts in archival storage for preservation. This is an opportunity to get a glimpse at our unseen history. 

Our Online Collections Database has been made possible by a grant from the La Crosse Community Foundation.

We have over 2,200 objects ready for you to search. Please note this is not our complete catalog. New records are added weekly.  We encourage you to explore our site and return often.
