The museum is in Minnesota’s oldest surviving Italianate brick schoolhouse in Reads Landing, MN.  Built in 1870, the building is now on the National Register of Historic Places and loaded with local history.  Additionally, our Agricultural Heritage Building shares the long farming history and an extensive collection of vintage farm machinery.

Our open hours are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, 12 pm – 4 pm

Stop in to learn about the massive 36-star flag hand-stitched by the women of Reads Landing during the Civil War to show their support for the Union. On display is a smaller replica of the historic flag, crafted by the women of the Third Minnesota Volunteer Infantry reenactment group.
