History Connects Us All

Established 1985

RSF Historical Society Is Excited to Announce That Work Has FINISHED on the Renovation of La Flecha House!

Our museum was temporarily closed during the summer of 2024 to facilitate much needed improvements.

Along with addressing outdated plumbing and drainage, the centerpiece of the renovation project has been the courtyard. Although not original to the site, the existing tiles were old and worn. New, historically appropriate tile has been laid throughout the courtyard, and personalized, engraved signature tiles featuring the names of campaign supporters will be mounted on our wall. For more information on the tiles, please see below.

Now that the work is complete and our museum opening again, it is an excellent time to join your neighbors and become a part this RSFHS community organization. There’s still time to support the campaign and add your name to the new courtyard wall. Tax-deductible donations are warmly welcomed and will ensure that you can enjoy the exciting events and exhibitions ahead.
