The Treasure Chest Museum is the creation of Norman Hagedorn. He and his wife Ina devoted their retirement years to collecting antiques -- many of which were brought home from their travels throughout the country and overseas. In 1985, Norman opened his collection as a museum to the public in the concrete building he had just finished. The museum is now owned by the Municipality of Arran-Elderslie.
