The Des Plaines History Center is located in Des Plaines, Illinois, and serves as a non-profit organization that collects donated artifacts and documents that are accessible to the public through research facilities, exhibits, and public programs. The Des Plaines History Center contains an archival collection, and also includes the Kinder House Museum.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.desplaineshistory.org/about-us.htm )〕 ==History==
The first and earliest Des Plaines Historical Society was founded in 1935. They published a few of their own newsletters with an ambition to inform and write about the history of Des Plaines. Unfortunately, most of this material has been lost, and the first historical society was later disbanded. Around thirty years later in 1967, a new Historical Society was founded under the same name. A few years later, they made the Kinder House the building in which they collected and preserved artifacts, as well as displaying exhibits to the public. The Des Plaines Savings and Loan Association built a building at 781 Pearson Street. It was later used as a place for different employments, including a dental office and a beauty salon. In 2002, with limited room to hold the collections and a will to further interest people in the history of Des Plaines, the History Center acquired the Des Plaines Savings and Loan Association’s edifice, and is today known as the “Visitor Center.” Here, people can view exhibits, become a member of the society, participate in programs, and even buy from (the museum's gift shop. )
