Museums At Prophetstown — Attraction in Lafayette

A wonderful and amazing place to visit with kids. This includes museums and farms at the Prophetstown. We visited them and spent around three hours there. The house has a lot of amazing old stuff.

It was delightful to walk among ducks, chickens, turkeys, and to check their lovely houses. They also liked the barns, horses, cows, pigs, pony, rabbits, the cat, and the baby sheep. However, they could improve the presentation of old...

Excellent state park. Nice flat trails are easy for families with kids. 2 very large playgrounds. The water park is a major draw so be sure to go early if you want a good seat. The Farm is great for kids to see how a farm operates.

A really neat living museum. A tour of the house shows a glimpse of how life was back in the early 1900s. It was cold today so mst of the buildings were closed, but all of the animals were out and available. The chickens and turkeys were the stars today as they followed us around and let us pet them. Such a fun experience, we will definitely be back...
