The Museum
The museum is located at 166 South Union Street. It is the home of the Zion Lutheran Church built in 1885. The church building was entrusted to the historical society in 2005, and has become the home of the society’s museum. It is filled with photos and memorabilia from Pillow residents and businesses. There are displays featuring our veterans, our schools, our fire company, and our businesses. We have original documents from land purchases in town as well as over ten years of the Pillow Gazette, the local newspaper dating back to 1920. Our focus in the museum is to document the historical events in the town and to tell the story of the people who settled here, raised their families here, and gave the town the character it has today.
The museum is open on seeral scheduled days throught the year. It is also available by appointment. You need to email or call one of the executives to make an appointment.
