HISTORICAL COMMISSION

The Historical Commission serves in an advisory capacity for the establishment and implementation of a historic preservation plan, to review and advise on proposed activities affecting historic resources and to provide information on historic resources to the citizens of the township. They also provide tours of Caln's Hexagonal School House, on the first Sunday of each month, May through October from 1pm to 3pm (tours are currently on hold, due to COVID-19)
The Historical Commission consists of 9-15 members who serve five year terms and are appointed by the Board of Commissioners.  Join our team!

Historical Commission Updates:

​The Caln Township Historical Commission is working on restoring the Spackman Farm to grandeur. The Barn roof, long in disrepair and near collapse, is being replaced to preserve the building, and ideas are being considered to seek outside investors to complete the restoration of the Barn and Homestead. In the meantime, the land is still being farmed, and all proceeds from the farmer’s rent are going toward the many improvements needed to keep the properties from falling into further disrepair.
