To help Iowans comprehend who they are and what they can become, the State Historical Society of Iowa serves as a trustee of Iowa’s historical legacy and an advocate for understanding Iowa’s past.

State Historical Society of Iowa Mission

The State Historical Society of Iowa has a dual mission of preservation and education.
As a trustee of Iowa’s historical legacy, SHSI identifies, records, collects, preserves, manages, and provides access to Iowa’s historical resources.

As an advocate of understanding Iowa’s past, SHSI educates Iowans of all ages, conducts and stimulates research, disseminates information, and encourages and supports historical preservation and education efforts of others throughout the state.

We connect generation to generation – past, present and future
