History Nebraska, formerly known as the Nebraska State Historical Society, was founded in 1878 to document the stories of indigenous and immigrant peoples during a time of significant change in the state. As a state agency, it receives funding from the legislature and is dedicated to collecting, preserving, and sharing Nebraska's rich history through museums, programs, and educational initiatives.
Led by interim director and CEO Jill Dolberg, History Nebraska's mission is to make the real places and people of Nebraska's past accessible to all. With a focus on historical markers, collections, and events, the organization aims to engage the community in preserving legacy, learning from history, and building a better future for generations to come.
