Since 1960, the Weston Historical Museum has been dedicated to preserving and sharing the powerful story of Weston—a town that has played a pivotal role in local, regional, and national history. From steamboats and westward expansion to military connections at nearby Fort Leavenworth, from the heartache of slavery to the roots of agriculture and patriotism—Weston’s story is America’s story.

Join us in preserving the legacy our founders fought to remember—and ensure Weston’s history continues to inspire future generations.  Be part of history and join the museum today.
