Hours & Address
McConnell Mansion
Located in Moscow's historic neighborhood, the McConnell Mansion (at 110 South Adams Street) is an architectural and historic landmark. William J. McConnell, leading merchant, prominent Republican, and Idaho Governor from 1887 to 1893, built the house in 1886. On the main floor of the house are historic rooms interpreted in different time periods from 1900 to the 1930s. The second floor contains the restored master bedroom and exhibits, including hands-on activities for young visitors. During warm weather, visitors are invited to relax and enjoy refreshments in the backyard garden. The Museum Store carries books on local history, notecards from area artists, and more. Staffed by a corps of volunteers, the mansion is open Tuesday through Friday, and some Saturdays dependent on volunteer availability, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Centennial Annex
The Centennial Annex (at 327 East Second Street) houses Latah County Historical Society's archival, photograph, and object collections, along with a small research library. Our collections pertain to Latah County history and include materials donated by families, businesses, clubs and organizations, and local newspapers. These robust collections are utilized by researchers pursuing a variety of projects, from filling in a family tree to figuring out who once lived in their home to writing a popular history book (see Timothy Egan's The Big Burn). The Centennial Annex is open Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Appointments are required for research visits.
