Sculptor, Victor Kahill, first took up photography before he began sculpting. He travelled around southern Maine and photographed scenic views.
For this photograph he stood in a field near Stone Road, off Hio Ridge Road, in 1919 to snap this black and white photograph of Pleasant Mountain and Moose Pond. Image may be viewed in Denmark Historical Society’s collection. Photographer, Richard J. Snow, digitized the image for the Historical Society in July 2021.

The members of the board of directors of Denmark Historical Society wish to thank the Birch Cove Fund and Maine Community Foundation for its continued support of the projects to protect the contents of the archives.
Recently the society was awarded a grant of $5000.00 to continue its work.
The society has been fortunate to receive past grants which have enabled the society to digitize most of the collection and purchase supplies to protect individual items.
Thank you to Nestlé for the recent gift of $2,000.00 to further the work of the historical society. The gift will help us to continue to collect, protect and share the history of Denmark with the community.
Recently the historical society was gifted with a safe from Nestlé Waters North America. We are now able to store delicate, fragile items, along with digital storage of our collection.
The historical society thanks Terry Rhoads, for spending a day moving the safe to its new home. Thank you to C. M. Nichols Landscaping – Chris and Mark and their equipment loaded the safe from its former home into the truck that transported the safe to Denmark. Joe Wist’s tractor was used to unload the safe from the truck and moved to the library’s entrance. Nick Rehmert and Stephen Glasgow assisted Terry for the day with moving the safe to the library and its new home in the archive. Thank you to Nestlé Waters North America for this wonderful gift which will protect valuable items for the historical society.
We thank Denmark Public Library for allowing the safe to be located in the book sale area.
