My FavoritesInformation
The museum is dedicated to the preservation and displaying of collections of products, documents, photos, antiques and history of the Westclox Company.
The Westclox Museum is proud to present to you a history of the Western Clock Company, better known as Westclox, that was founded in Peru, Illinois and continued to operate in this location for nearly a century! The museum is located in a portion of the historic Westclox building, so don't miss out on your chance to see and learn about the company that began waking up America, and eventually the world, in 1885.
