Travel back to the early days of the frontier prairie as you walk into our One-Room School House built in 1894.

As you stroll the museum grounds, take special notice of the Antique Windmills and Farm Machinery as well as the beautifully maintained gardens.

Our expansive Exhibit Building contains many historical displays that vividly trace the roots and progress of the Limon area, including the Prairie Voices Gallery and Our Military History exhibit.
