We are an all-volunteer community historical society and museum
presenting
local and regional exhibits in an old-time general store. We've
tried to make our museum look much like the general store did a hundred
years ago
(compare interior photos from
1905
and
1999).
The museum is owned and operated by the Historic Millburn Community Association, Incorporated. We offer a brief history of how the HMCA founded the museum.
We're located in Old Mill Creek, Lake County, Illinois, about 15 miles west of Lake Michigan and about five miles south of the Wisconsin border. The Millburn area was annexed to Old Mill Creek in 1991. We have directions, which include a map, to help motorists find their way.
Martin's General Store Museum is open Sundays from 12:30 until 4:00 p.m. from mid-April through mid-December. We are closed from the middle of December thru March, opening again in April. Special may be arranged by appointment only. Check our schedule to make sure that we'll be open when time you plan to visit.
We are open to the public and do not charge admission. Read the brochure that we give to visitors as they arrive.
You may enter the exhibit area.
We are appreciative of the donation of items for our collection.
