Honoring Our Past
Everyday
The City of South Lyon celebrated our 150th anniversary in 2023. Just because we are now in 2025 does not mean that we should stop celebrating our history. We invite the community to celebrate and participate in the many events throughout 2025 such as Depot Day, the annual Pumpkinfest parade, Christmas at the Village, the Holiday Dulcimer concert, summer concerts in the village and more! Also watch for special events throughout 2025 to help with raising funds for the Roper Barn Project.
Join Us At the Historical Village!
Experience local preserved history at the South Lyon Historical Village, a gem in the South Lyon community. Created in 1976 by the South Lyon Historical Society, the Historical Village serves as a focal point for the South Lyon area community.
On Sunday afternoons May through October, the historical village is open to the public and for self tours and guided tours.
The SLAHS has an Organ (pedal pump operated) and a Victrola player that need new home(s). They are surplus items from our museum. Please call 248-437-9929 or email us at SouthLyonAHS@gmail.com for more information. See pictures below...
PLEASE NOTE: THE SOUTH LYON AREA HISTORICAL SOCIETY IS NOT AFFILIATED IN ANY WAY WITH THE FRIENDS OF THE ROPER BARN.
