(CHS) to preserve local history for the Town of Concord. We are located in Jefferson County, Wisconsin, USA. In order to accomplish our mission we collect photographs, plat maps, and any documents related to the Town of Concord\u2019s history. We also collect historic artifacts from our local community. If you have historic items or documents that you would like to see preserved for future generations, please consider donating them to the CHS.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We have restored an authentic 1850\u2019s log cabin from the Town of Concord. The <strong>William R. Look Log Cabin<\/strong> was dedicated and donated to our town on August 10, 2003. The log cabin is located in Concord Park, in the Town of Concord. We also operate the <strong>Concord Historical Museum<\/strong>, at W1185 Concord Center Drive, where we display and interpret our local history. The museum and log cabin are across Concord Center Drive from each other, in the center of town. The Concord Historical Society, Inc. was established in 1993, as a 501c-3, non-profit organization, and is a member of the Wisconsin Council for Local History, an affiliate member of the Wisconsin Historical Society.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Website\u00a0copyright: www.concordwihistory.org &#8211; Concord Historical Society, Inc. &#8211; \u00a0All rights reserved.<a href=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/CHS-photo-banner-website-2014.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-128\" src=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/CHS-photo-banner-website-2014-1024x140.jpg\" alt=\"CHS photo banner website 2014\" width=\"764\" height=\"105\" srcset=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/CHS-photo-banner-website-2014-1024x140.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/CHS-photo-banner-website-2014-300x41.jpg 300w, http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/CHS-photo-banner-website-2014.jpg 1347w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 764px) 100vw, 764px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/30-Year-Anniversay-logo-sm-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-419 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/30-Year-Anniversay-logo-sm-1-295x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"164\" height=\"186\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/cropped-cropped-CHS-website-graphics-2014-background-with-title-72-dpi5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-89\" src=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/cropped-cropped-CHS-website-graphics-2014-background-with-title-72-dpi5-300x64.jpg\" alt=\"cropped-cropped-CHS-website-graphics-2014-background-with-title-72-dpi5.jpg\" width=\"598\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/cropped-cropped-CHS-website-graphics-2014-background-with-title-72-dpi5-300x64.jpg 300w, http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/cropped-cropped-CHS-website-graphics-2014-background-with-title-72-dpi5-1024x219.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/cropped-cropped-CHS-website-graphics-2014-background-with-title-72-dpi5.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/CHS-logo-w-website-2017.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-316\" src=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/CHS-logo-w-website-2017-300x177.jpg\" alt=\"CHS logo 2014\" width=\"221\" height=\"130\" srcset=\"http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/CHS-logo-w-website-2017-300x177.jpg 300w, http:\/\/concordwihistory.org\/chw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/CHS-logo-w-website-2017.jpg 728w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 221px) 100vw, 221px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to the Concord Historical Society website!\u00a0We celebrated our 30th Anniversary as a local historical society in 2023.
