Sheldon Prairie Museum — Attraction in Sheldon

This is the most amazing historical museum I’ve ever been to. It is so beautifully laid out with fascinating displays about Sheldon and Iowa. I love antiques and if it was a store, I would have gone broke!!

The building, built by Andrew Carnegie is beautiful and has all the original touches. It used to be the library. So many generous people have contributed to the success of the museum. I was lucky enough to be shown around by the wonderful Millie Vos, Ralph Hollander, Jr and Dave Perrott. This museum rivals many museums in NY. I learned so much about Iowa.

It’s worth it to take a trip to Sheldon, if you are in Iowa. You’ll be so...

I was born in Sheldon, and have been to that library many times, but not recently. The thing I wanted people to realize is that the building is one of the Carnegie buildings that are found scattered around, at least, the Midwest. The architecture is very stately and recognizable with pillars outside...

Excellent Museum if you live in this area. Well informed your guide to answer all questions and point out items...
