The Old Mission Peninsula Historical Society of Old Mission, Michigan (OMPHS) was founded in 1992 by a core group of citizens concerned about saving the Hessler Log Cabin which is now located on the grounds of the Mission Point Lighthouse. The society's work continues with monthly historical presentations, a memorial tree program, an American chestnut tree program, and volunteer support of the Peninsula Township's historic sites.
We invite you to explore our website and join us. We meet at 6:00 pm on the first Thursday, September through May, meeting is (6:00-7:00 pm) at the Peninsula Community Library. Each meeting features a program on topics of local history.
