Although the museum is open rain or shine, please make sure you visit on a day when you can take in the on-site one-room schoolhouse, the church, the firehouse, and the prairie cabin.

Outside, there are collections in every window of the main building as well as a collection of period buildings. Handicapped accessible, Covid compliant, independently run on donations,...
