Reviews
"Very good for a county museum. You don’t expect to see this level of museum in a town with only 3000 people! Good art collection and great library. Historic buildings are a nice touch."
"Very well maintained path and learning opportunities"
"Lots of old unique stuff you can easily spend an hour or two here and then go take a walk on the trail."
"This must be the coolest museum I never knew existed. There are so many historical artifacts from not only Dallas county but all over the world. The curator is incredibly knowledgeable about every piece in his collection and very friendly. It's also just a short bike ride off the Raccoon River Valley Trail. I recommend this place for anyone interested in local history or anyone biking by. Great place to check out!"
"This was a great place to learn about how we've come up from our past. My daughter had a field trip and she loved it."
