Who Are We?
The Waterville Historical Society was formed in 1903. Since then, we have been working hard to preserve Waterville's Historic artifacts and information.
Our most recognizable artifact is the Redington Museum, which has the Redington Home, built in 1814, as its anchor. The Society is made up of members from the community and away and is proud to maintain and preserve the history of this great city.
The Museum
The Redington Museum offers a comprehensive and charming view of life in Waterville during the past two centuries.
​
Fascinating collections of furniture, accessories, household artifacts, toys, tools, and weapons as well as historical papers and diaries, are located in an elegant Federal-style home that was built by Asa Redington in 1814.
