If you are curious about the history of Royal Oak, this is the place to go. Their speakers are wonderful & informative. So happy I became a member of the R.O. Historical Society.
Recently moved our family to Royal Oak and we wanted to learn the history of Royal Oak so we set out to visit the Royal Oak Historical Society Museum! They are open on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 1pm to 4pm. This museum is FREE, however it runs on donations. We were greeted by Libby upon our arrival and she was absolutely pleasant. We were then introduced to Mike, who was a wealth of information on many aspects of the museum. He had wonderful insights and stories to share. He gave us a tour and told us about his time at the fire station prior to it becoming the museum. I enjoyed the experience and all that the museum has to offer. I definitely recommend a visit! They do have guest speakers and they also change up some of their exhibit. Please visit, share, enjoy and donate to the museum as it will keep the history of Royal Oak alive!
We went to see the Abraham Lincoln display and was treated to meeting our 16th President. A very interesting afternoon.
If you love Royal Oak and or cars this is a must visit during the dream cruise they have the best Woodward history laid out along with car designers art work. Also, they have a lot of special events all year long. I put a vintage car in there annual car show every year.
Once upon a time in the 50’s I used to deliver the Morning FreePress before school and the Daily Tribune in the afternoon after school. The firemen were great, they let me stand inside to get warm Ed up in the winter and in the summer I would watch them pitch horseshoes in the backyard in the afternoon.
Terrific displays and staff that want to be there. Drop what you're doing and go and visit. Get some history in your life so you can brag to your friends how much YOU know about Royal Oak.
