Site Features: |
| What kind of visit you can have:
Visit museum, then the grounds of the village.
Tours are given during the summer, and the grounds are
open although the 24 buildings are locked the rest of
the year. It is far enough from traffic and the
buildings are spread out enough to give a good feel of a
prairie village. |
