Hennepin History Museum is a small museum in the Museums, Historical Sites, and Zoos sector, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It preserves and interprets the region's history through exhibits, public programs, a magazine, and a public research library to help people understand their world. The institution emphasizes inclusive storytelling, asserting that history unites communities when everyone is represented. In 2023, it partnered with local Minneapolis initiatives such as the Minneapolis Project and the Minneapolis Interview Project to broaden its community programming. Earlier collaborations include working with the Northern Bedrock Historic Preservation Corps on restoration of the Christian family residence, a nearly century-old mansion that has served as the county historical museum since the mid-1950s.
