Holland Historical Society

The former Holland Congregational Church is located on an open hillside of farmland and serves as the home of the local historical society. It is currently open seasonally and by appointment. The collection includes antiques from the late 1800s and early 1900s that have been donated from local families – clothing, home goods, tools, photographs, diaries and letters. Many changes have taken place in the display areas under the guidance of new President Karon Thibault. Many thanks to Karon and her husband Lionel for all of their work this year.

Events have included an annual dinner and annual church service (in honor of the buildings historic use) and they have an annual Open House event. In recent years active members have thinned out. We welcome anyone interested in the History of Holland to join us. We meet monthly during the Spring - Fall. The next meeting is Thursday, July 24 at 6:00 at the building on Gore Road.

Jan Lewandowski has done a recent assessment of the old church. There is much work to be done to keep the decay away. Siding is rotting. Windows need paint. It is never ending. We need volunteers and money to do repairs.
