ECHS Knox House Museum

Our Website is restored and back up. Please visit us at: https://elcajonhistory.org

A Thanksgiving greeting from all of us at the Knox House Museum! Be safe.

We are following the COVID-19 guidelines which means we are not open even to appointments. We are very sorry for the inconvenience that this causes.

Interesting article I came across while doing research on the Police Department in El Cajon. The article reads as follows.....Sgt Andy McReynolds sits atop the Department's first Harley Davidson Police Motorcycle in 1949. One problem, no officer in the department knew how to ride it so Chief Huffman would have it pushed to the corner of Main and Magnolia where it was parked in the hopes of deterring speeding motorists.

Our April 16th Quarterly will be cancelled due to the COVID-19. We hope to see everyone when this passes. Take care, be safe!

The Knox Museum will be closed until further notice. Most of our docents are 65 yrs. of age or older so we will follow the statement passed down from our Governer concerning the Coronavirus. Thank you for your understanding and we apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.
