The Webster Township Historical Society (WTHS) owns and manages seven historic buildings, six of them located in Historic Webster Village at 5583 Webster Church Road in Webster Township just outside of Dexter, MI. The seventh historic building is Crossroads Community Center located at 5501 Webster Church Road, adjacent to the village. These buildings are maintained solely by the WTHS through donations, membership dues, and grants. Four of our buildings are over 150 years old! With our new walking path in place connecting the village buildings, the village is often referred to by visitors as a mini-Greenfield Village. Explore our website and come visit us!
Our historic campus includes the Old Town Hall (1871), Kleinschmidt General Store (replica, 2005), May Mast’s Old North Barn (1960s) which serves as our farm museum, our one-room Podunk Schoolhouse (1946), the Wheeler Wheelwright & Blacksmith Shop (1870s) and the Dieterle Corncrib (replica, 2016) which is our music perfomance stage. We also erect a 20′ x 40′ tent in early June and take it down at the end of September.
We rent our historic facilities and offer our grounds and buildings for use by professional photographers.
