Mission Statement

To inspire curiosity and foster learning about Lee's Summit's past by providing engaging, individual, and unique experiences for the community. We believe history begins today.

THE LEE'S SUMMIT HISTORICAL SOCIETY maintains a museum in the south End of the historic 1905 train depot located in downtown Lee's Summit. The museum opened October 4, 1991 and houses a number of historic artifacts, maps, and photos of early Lee's Summit.

Monetary donations are also accepted. The Historical Society also needs volunteers to work at the museum so that it can maintain regular hours.
