On our many drives from St Louis to Mpls we passed Swedesberg, IA and often thought to stop and tour the Swedish museum. So on our way home we did just that, but it was early morning and were told it wouldn't be open until after 11am. Took pictures of the building and giant Swedish Dela horse ud83dudc34 out front. The museum is on the national historic registry and received a grant to help restore two additional buildings built in the 1800's. Next trip we will make a reservation to tour these buildings to learn more about the Swedish immigrants that came and settled in these parts. Check out the museum website.
A nice bit of Sweden in good old Iowa. Quite quaint.
I have passed this quaint little community a couple of time while driving to and from Minnesota. I finally stopped in and am sooo glad I did. It is a lovely little museum about the local Swedish community and their history and culture. They offered coffee and an assortment of little danishes and pastries. They have a perfect little gift shop area as well.
We made a quick stop when we were passing by, but could have spent more time there. Very friendly volunteers will guide you through and will answer all of your questions. Wish we could be there for midsummer to see the maypole!
Very interesting. Staff was very nice and helpful.
