Our Mission
The Hopkins Historical Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to collecting, maintaining, exhibiting and educating museum researchers and guests concerning the history of Hopkins, Minnesota.
Our History
Since its founding in 1972, the Hopkins Historical Society has been dedicated to preserving the history of the Hopkins community, acting as a resource center for over 8000 photographs depicting historical Hopkins, including county fairs, the annual Hopkins Raspberry Festival, local schools and economic development. We have also gathered an extensive collection of objects and archival items related to the history of Hopkins thanks to our generous donors. We look forward to celebrating 50 years of service to the Hopkins Community in 2022!
