Our
Museums
We
operate two museums, the largest being the
Pioneer
Museum Complex
which was
created in 1956 when the Historical Society bought the home, smokehouse
and barn of Henry Kammlah and turned it into a small museum. Since
then six major structures have been added and the museum has frontage on
two streets.
