The Minnetonka Historical Society is an independent, nonprofit organization founded in 1970 as the successor to the Minnetonka History Commission.  We are a nonprofit dedicated to preserving Minnetonka’s past.  

Our mission is to protect, preserve and promote our unique history for generations to come.  At present, the pandemic has changed our traditional in-person educational and recreational activities, however, our mission remains the same and the work continues.  Now, more than ever, we are dependent on member support and appreciate your continued support. 

Your tax-deductible* contribution will directly help achieve our mission.
