Welcome to the website of the Salem Museum and Historical Society! We hope
you will find it a valuable resource not only for information about our
Museum, but also about the rich history of Salem and the Roanoke Valley of
Virginia. If you have ever been curious about what was here before us,
we've got some of the answers--spend some time exploring our local past!
Since 1970, the Salem Historical Society has been dedicated to the mission
of “preserving the past, informing the future.” Located since 1992 in the
Williams-Brown House (built 1845), and since 2010 in our state-of-the-art,
environmentally sensitive addition, the Salem Museum is a vital part of our
community. Enjoy your visit to our website and come back often--but we'd
also love to welcome you in person at our Museum!
