Delta County Museum

In 1941, A WDBC radio station building was constructed on Sand Point in Escanaba.  The radio station used the building until the mid-1950s when they moved to  a new location downtown.  The City of Escanaba acquired the vacant building, and in 1956 the City  agreed to let the Delta County Historical Society lease it to use as a museum for the sum of one dollar a year.

The Museum officially opened on May 25, 1956 and  quickly filled with artifacts and heirlooms portraying the rich history of Delta County and its people.  Over the past fifty-plus years, the Delta County Historical Society has collected a wide array of objects of historical  significance, all from the generous donations of the citizens of our county.
