Cook Rutledge Mansion

Museum

👍👍 I held an event at the Cook Rutledge Mansion in August. Sandi, our contact for the event, was very responsive and helpful. Set up for the buffet was done by Bijou Bistro in the dining room and guests were allowed to tour the mansion at their leisure. Some guests mentioned ghosts and a creepy sec...

Blue Earth County Historical Society

Historical society

👍👍 If you haven't been here in a bit, they have a new display. I think my favorites are the Mankato Brewery mechanical drawings and the old Sears catalog you can look through. The superheterodyne radio was top though.

Madison County Historical Society

👍👍 A wonderful collection. The rock collection is actually of a high class. The buildings and displays are varied and comfortable to pass through. The house has solid walnut trimmings with glass imported from France. One bed covering was tatted by a man recuperating from war wounds.

Galena - U.S. Grant History Museum

Museum

👍👍 This museum is a great blessing for history lovers ! It's also housed in a historic 19th century house. The exhibits are dating from the time first settlers came to Galena. Museum takes one through history, and its chronological display sails one through the timeline. Displays range from the city...

Deere-Wiman House

Historical landmark

👍👍 The ladies who give the tours were very passionate about the subject matter. It's honestly one of the few places left that do not charge for tours, although I wonder how long they'll be able to keep doing that (considering how much upkeep must be). Can't go wrong for a little local history!

Orchard Lawn

Historical landmark

👍👍 This is a fascinating and beautiful piece of history and I'm really glad the Mineral Point Historical Society has worked so hard to restore it! We got a great tour from an enthusiastic volunteer and it was well worth the $10 entry ticket.

👍👍 My cousin and I visited the Historical Society last week and found the staff very helpful and accommodating. Information there is well organized and easy to find.
