Dedicated to the History of Edmonds
Lower Level
The lower floor of the museum is dedicated to the history of Edmonds and the surrounding area. The displays provide an encapsulated, thematic, and chronological history, interpreting the many changes that have taken place in Edmonds from 1890 to today.
Learn about Edmonds’ founding in 1890, its settlement and growth, the birth of its logging and shingle industries, the influence of transportation, and other important events, and see original artifacts to accompany these stories.
The lower level features a reconstructed room from the 1894 Stevens Hotel, a schoolhouse exhibit, a diorama depicting the Edmonds townsite and waterfront in 1910, and a working model of a shingle mill, representative of the mills that filled the Edmonds waterfront at the turn of the century.
