(La Porte, IN) - The La Porte County Historical Society Museum will be temporarily closed starting tomorrow. A new roof will be placed on the museum on U.S. 35 at the southern edge of the city. The current roof has been leaking for several months.

Two months ago, the La Porte County Council approved the money for a new roof as long as the cost does not exceed $150,000. Officials say when the museum will reopen will be announced as soon as possible.
