Donate to Our Collections
We want your history
The Edina Historical Society focuses on one topic: Edina.
Our collection includes artifacts and archives that help tell the stories of Edina, including its homes, people, neighborhoods, schools, city government, environment, organizations and businesses.
We can't order Edina history from a catalog. We depend on you to donate photographs, documents and objects that help tell the story. We collect new items as well as old. The 2009 Edina High School yearbook is just as important as the first one issued in 1951. We document the first skyscraper as well as the first farm. And we want your story to add to those of the first Edina settlers.
