Founded in 1972 as the Lake Forest-Lake Bluff Historical Society by over 100 charter members to preserve the history of Lake Forest and Lake Bluff, The History Center of Lake Forest-Lake Bluff has been home to the stories of our community for more than 45 years. And now we have a state-of-the-art history museum that is the pride of Lake Forest and Lake Bluff. The museum and community research center is a gathering place where the community can come together to celebrate who we are and how we are connected.
