Dig into historic death culture of DuPage County. Explore codes of dress, mourning traditions, and the way death and dying were understood by the people of the past. From the settlement period, through the Civil War, and into the last years of the Victorian Era, this exhibition invites visitors to take a look at the material culture left behind.
Admission to the DuPage County Historical Museum is free. Donations are greatly appreciated to help create new exhibits and keep our facility open and operating. A suggested donation amount for adults is $4 and $2 for children and students.
Guided tours can be arranged for groups of as small as 2 and as large as 30, with a fee of $2.00 per person. Reservations must be made at least seven days in advance and are available during the Museum's normal operating hours.
