Kent Historical Museum

This place is a gem hidden in plain sight. Not only is it beautifully restored and preserved, but the exhibits that have been donated from all over the area, tell an incredible story about the town and America, as a whole. The exhibits give an intimate glimpse into the lives of some of our Japanese citizens who were sent to internment camps during WW2. Additionally, we get insight into Ft. Thomas and how Carnation condensed milk got it's start. The old building remains, it's back visible at the Kent Regional Library. I highly recommend a visit. It's free, but well worth the recommended $2 donation.

The Kent Historical Museum has something for everyone! Research your roots, your home or business, learn all about the founding of Kent and what makes it special. Kent has always had a diverse population. The museum offers many opportunities to learn about the past, look forward into the future of our community and become involved in our community.

This lovely old home is chock full of Kent lore as well as vintage appliances, music machines and local history bluffs anxious to talk about way back when. Brush up on your vision of how it all started and envision life as a wealthy family in an emerging town far from the big city.
