The Dunn County Historical Society is a regional museum and cultural organization focused on discovering, preserving, interpreting, and sharing the history of Dunn County and its role within Wisconsin. It operates a county-wide network of historical sites, with its headquarters at the Russell J. Rassbach Heritage Museum in Menomonie, and a second location, the Empire in Pine Museum, in Downsville. The organization maintains extensive artifact collections, interactive exhibits, and educational spaces that cover topics from pre-historic settlement to the Civil War, as well as local industry and notable regional figures, alongside a rural one-room schoolhouse site. Serving visitors, researchers, and local residents, the society provides interpretive experiences and public programming to foster interest in the past. Established in 1950, it is based in Menomonie, Wisconsin, and operates within the museums, historical sites, and zoos sector, with a small staff supporting its operations and community outreach.
