Site Description
The Blessed Michael McGivney Pilgrimage Center (formerly the Knights of Columbus Museum) features core exhibits that tell the history of the Knights of Columbus as well as changing exhibits on history and art. The Supreme Council Archives are located at the Pilgrimage Center and house the records of the Knights of Columbus Supreme Council, the governing body of the Knights of Columbus. In addition to corporate records (both analog and digital), there are collections related to the work of the Knights of Columbus, personal papers, and serial publications. (While these collections contain photographs, the bulk of the photographs and audio and video recordings are held in the Multimedia Archives which is separate from the Supreme Council Archives.) The Archives are open for research by appointment only Monday - Friday, 10-4.
