Formerly known and Murphy’s Landing, this is really a fun outing for kids 4 and older. The museum hosts more than 40 historic buildings that are arranged to show how settlers established their lives on the early frontier and farmsteads in Minnesota circa 1840. Costumed interpreters will guide you through many buildings and activities. Visit a school house, church, railroad depot, general store, blacksmith shop, newspaper printing office and individual homes. Farm animals run free and a horse drawn trolley ride will get you from place to place. Demonstrations on candle making, butter churning, soap making and weaving are some of the activities you might see. In the summer they have a pioneer kid’s play area. The museum also hosts a special event during the holidays which focuses on ethnic traditions of Christmas and Hanukah. The museum is open on weekends from Memorial day through November and again during weekends in December. Adults $8.50 Children $7.00 and kids 5 and under are free.
