Chelan County Historical Society | Cashmere Museum & Pioneer Village

The Chelan County Historical Society, a nonprofit organization, established the Cashmere Museum & Pioneer Village in 1955 with the help of local collector Willis Carey, who wished to preserve his renowned collection of Native American artifacts, antiques, and historical relics, and community leaders like John McDonald. The Museum was incorporated in 1956, opened in 1959, and grew to include the Pioneer Village in 1967, which now features 20 original structures such as a blacksmith shop, a Great Northern Railway caboose, and a one-room schoolhouse. Over the years, it has expanded to a 13,000-square-foot facility housing Native American artifacts, Pioneer objects, geological specimens, and ornithological displays.
