Museum

Notice: The CAA Museum is closed due to damage caused by the summer floods. It will remain closed while we work on cleanup and repairs.

Our museum is located in the historic Kamp Store that was built by J.A. Kamp in 1902.

Museum exhibits focus on the fascinating history of the Illinois River Valley, from its earliest settlers to more recent occupations.

Admission is free, though donations are encouraged. The CAA is an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Contributions make the museum, our programs, and our mission possible.

The museum’s gift shop features CAA apparel, souvenirs, books, works by local artists, and other gifts. All purchases support the museum.
