Welcome to the Cottage Grove Museum!

The Cottage Grove Museum was built 1897 as Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church.  This unique octagonal building was modeled after a small church in Germany.  The stained glass windows are original and were imported from Italy.  When the parish moved in 1961, the building was purchased and deeded to the city of Cottage Grove for use as a museum.  The Cottage Grove Museum is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
