The 1908 home of La Mesa's first mayor, furnished to show village life a century ago. A twenty-minute stop best combined with a walk through La Mesa Village.

BEAUTIFUL! Lovely old home, and our tour guide was knowledgeable and very polite. Obviously the History group is proud of La Mesa’s past and anxious to share with guests.

Very active group working to preserve La Mesa History, and to make resources available to the public for research, restoring historically significant properties and visiting the historic McKinney House. One room of the McKinney House features a well curated display of places and people from the region's past. The archives are well documented and the La Mesa Historical Society Volunteers are very helpful.
