Warrensburgh Historical Society

We are sorry to announce that the Museum is out of the Bicenntenial Book until further notice.

Warrensburg

A quiet, scenic town in the southern Adirondack Mountains between the Schroon and Hudson rivers.

The Warrensburgh Historical Society was founded in 1973 to protect and provide historical information to our residents and visitors to the community.
The Museum, as well as the Society's educational and community-oriented programs will enhance your appreciation for Warrensburg and the surrounding region. Our annual events, The Sticky Wicket Croquet Tournament and Picnic in August and the Graveyard Walks in September, are two examples of the activities we bring to the community.

Once a busy water-powered industrial center, it remains a vibrant part of Warren County. Early settlers in the 1780s were pioneers in this “dark and dangerous place.” Fortunes were made in lumber and tanning and eventually the garment industries.

Now serving full time residents and visitors, all lovers of the outdoors and things “Adirondacks,” Warrensburg has much to offer.

Reviews

"I loved the guide"
"The guide makes all of the difference in the world. Bob showed me around the place with confidence in the history, and clarity of the past. The museum is also set up very simply and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. For kids, there's an interactive play area in the middle of the museum. I would recommend this for anyone."
