About the Depot Museum

 

The Vicksburg Deport Museum, formerly a depot for the Grand Trunk & Western Railroad (a part of the Canadian National System), has more than 10,000 historical and genealogical items in its collection.  In addition, it features a historic village of buildings important to the development of Vicksburg and the south Kalamazoo county region on the depot grounds.

The Vicksburg Museum is open Tuesdays from 1 to 3 p.m., Thursdays from 6 to 8 p.m. and Saturdays from 1 to 4 p.m.  Exhibits are changed several times a year, and  historical meetings are held monthly - see the museum news below for current information. 

Vicksburg Historical Society welcomes Ruth Ann Batts as the Museum’s new Director. She will begin her new duties on February 1, and can be reached at 649-1733 or 323-2536. 

 

Our Mission:  Preserve and   present the history of the greater Vicksburg area, including the townships of  Brady, Schoolcraft, Wakeshma, and Pavilion.
