Gothenburg Historical Museum

The Gothenburg Pony Express Historical Society was organized February 18, 1981 and incorporated on December 28, 1981. 

It's purpose according to it's Articles of Incorporation was to "gather, preserve and make available records and other material relating to the history of Gothenburg and the surrounding area; to stimulate an interest in, and knowledge of the locality's past,to discover and collect any material which may help to establish or illustrate the history of Gothenburg and the surrounding area, and the exploration, settlement, development of it..." What began as a dream for the Gothenburg Historical Museum was finally realized in 2005 with the purchase of the building at 1420 Avenue F, across the street from Ehmen Park and the historic Pony Express Station.

The Gothenburg Historical Museum began as a non-profit Corporation and is run totally by volunteers and is funded through memberships, grants and donations.
