Coming soon…our book!

Learn about the history of Norwood Park from open prairie to city neighborhood.

Norwood Park, A View from the Ridge traces the evolution of Norwood Park from open prairie to farmland to subdivision to village to city neighborhood and reveals the entwined connections between Norwood Park and early Chicago.

Celebrate with us at our book launch event on December 7, 2024, 4 pm – 6 pm. However, books will be available for purchase at our Victoria’s Craft Show from November 14-16th.

The Noble-Seymour-Crippen House is the headquarters of the not-for-profit Norwood Park Historical Society and houses its museum, archives, exhibits, and meeting space. Built in 1833, the Noble-Seymour-Crippen House is Chicago’s oldest house and is a designated City of Chicago Landmark (1988) and listed on the National Register of Historic Places (2000). The Museum is open every Saturday from noon to 4 PM except when there has been a recent snow of 2″ or more or a special fundraising event is scheduled. Reservations are encouraged for groups of 6 or more. A voluntary $5 donation is asked for admission.

Thank you to all our volunteers and attendees for making Fall-O-Ween such a successful event!

Note: The Museum will be closed on Saturday November 9th and 16th for the Craft Show.
