The South Windsor Historical Society is a 501(c)3 organization that strives to provide insights to various periods of history of our town, state, and country through the use of monthly programs and special events such as our bi-annual Christmas Walk and yearly Heritage Day celebration. We are currently in the process of restoring the former Union District School to its original configuration as built in 1905.
