About:

The Wallowa History Center is a nonprofit corporation whose mission is to increase public access to local history. We accomplish this mission through the collection and preservation of photos, diaries, maps, oral histories, manuscripts, and artifacts relevant to the history of Wallowa County, and then by digitizing, displaying, and disseminating these through our research library, our educational presentations and publications, our website and social media presence, and through our interpretive center.

Located in Wallowa, Oregon, in the historic U.S. Forest Service headquarters of the Bear-Sleds Ranger District, our research library houses over 4,000 physical documents and objects, while our interpretive center hosts rotating exhibits designed by our volunteer historians.
