Our schedule of Events and Monthly Programs.

The Louisa County Historical Society is pleased to invite visitors to our two musuems: The new Sargeant Museum of Louisa County History (Tues and Thurs 10-4, and Sat 10-12-summer only) and the Jail Museum (Fri and Sat 10-12 during May-October).  We trust the rich history and diverse heritage of Louisa County will come alive as you experience our themed exhibits at the Sargeant Museum or hear echos of the past through the brick walls of the old jail.  Admission to both museums is free and donations appreciated.  Click here for our museum slideshow recently featured in the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

Chartered in 1966, the purpose of the Louisa County Historical Society is to promote the preservation of historical records, collect existing materials, writings and artifacts of life in Louisa County and to make these collections available to the public. Two magazines are published each year - Spring and Fall; Newsletters are published occasionally, usually Summer and Winter. Newsletters are published quarterly, spring, summer, fall and winter.

The Historical Society works closely with the Louisa County Library, which is considered the research center. The Library contains a majority of the Society's Museum Collection of books. As the Library is open every day, except Sunday, in a sense the Museum is open every day for most of the year.   We invite anyone with access to old family records, Bibles, letters, diaries, etc. with information on Louisa County citizens and happenings to please share with the Society for our archives.
