City of Nauvoo

Nauvoo is a small, welcoming river town with a rich heritage and a strong sense of community. Known for its beautifully preserved historic sites and scenic Mississippi River views, Nauvoo thrives on the dedication of residents, volunteers, and visitors who help keep its history alive. Whether supporting local events, assisting at museums, or helping maintain community spaces, volunteers play an essential role in creating the warm, inviting atmosphere that defines Nauvoo.

We work together to preserve Nauvoo’s history, support community events, and create meaningful experiences for visitors from around the world. Our volunteers help staff museums, assist with historic demonstrations, welcome guests, maintain community spaces, and lend a hand at local festivals and programs. By sharing their time and talents, volunteers strengthen Nauvoo’s spirit of service and ensure that this small town continues to be a place of learning, connection, and hospitality.
