WelcomeWelcome to the new East Troy Area Historical Society website! This has long been our dream to have such a venue available to those interested in sharing their love of history, especially those memories associated with this area of southeastern Wisconsin. Whether this was your home or was an area that played a part in your life along the way, we open our doors to offer a place where you can share our treasures and may it be an invitation for you to add to our historic assets. Judy Mitten, President Statement of Purpose:
The East Troy Area Historical Society (ETAHS) exists for the purpose of educating the public about the history of East Troy , Troy , Troy Center , La Fayette, Spring Prairie, and the Troy Lakes area, and for preserving artifacts from these communities for the benefit of all of its citizens. The ETAHS is a non-profit organization that operates by donation and the efforts of volunteer members. Membership is open to all interested citizens.
