Mesa Historical Museum, History museum in Mesa, United States
The Mesa Historical Museum features exhibits that document the development of Mesa through artifacts, photographs, and interactive displays spanning multiple decades.
Founded in 1987, the museum originated from preservation efforts in the 1940s when citizens collected historical materials to maintain Mesa's regional legacy.
The museum presents the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community exhibition, celebrating the heritage of Onk Akimel O'odham and Piipaash communities.
Visitors can explore permanent collections, temporary exhibitions, and participate in guided tours that detail the evolution of Mesa from its early settlement.
An adobe schoolhouse replica contains original artifacts and photographs from the 1880s, presenting educational practices from Mesa's first educational institution.
