The museum and its programs are a joint initiative between the Renton Historical Society and the city of Renton. The Museum has more than 90,000 objects and 13,000 photographs about Renton’s social, cultural and industrial history. The most notable are photographs of local coal mining, railroads and the civic and social life of its residents from 1880 to 1940.
