Upcoming Events
Can’t Wait to See You Here
At Paynesville History Museum, we believe that a museum as a place not just for storing unique objects, but rather, it’s a place for people to engage, interact and ponder. We hold a number of yearly events to both members and non-members alike. Check in regularly to see what's happening at the Paynesville History Museum.
