The mission of Preservation Partners is to offer heritage education and to promote the appreciation and preservation of the Fox Valley’s rich architectural and historical resources.
Preservation Partners operates three house museums and one school museum in central Kane County, filled with a multitude of treasures and special exhibits awaiting discovery. In addition to site tours at these museums and the Fabyan Japanese Garden, we offer many opportunities to protect our shared heritage, through programs and tours focusing on historic preservation and grass-roots advocacy.

Historic preservation starts with education. We offer five sites in the Fox Valley to tour & learn, for all ages.
