The Tower Museum is a place to learn about the Who, What, and Where of Western Springs history through both permanent and rotating exhibits. The first floor features prominent residents, a timeline of major events in the town's history from early settlement by the Potawatomi Indians to the dedication of the Ekdahl House Museum in 2009. The ground floor also features historic maps of the village. Also on the first floor is our current rotating exhibit, "The Case of the Missing Window." Words from John Brannen tell the story of the journey a stained glass window from the Benezette Williams home on Central has taken. Many thanks to the Brannen Family for this amazing story and donation. The second floor exhibits feature earlier life in the village with artifacts dating from 1900-1920. Household items, clothing, school supplies, tools, and uniforms are among a wide variety of items displayed.
