New and Updated Exhibits

We have been working hard at the Dickinson County Museum to bring museum visitors new and updated exhibits! Moving forward, we are carefully curating artifacts and focusing on telling the stories behind them. This summer, we have created three new exhibits! Come see our Summer Fun exhibit, which focuses on summer sports and activities around the Iowa Great Lakes. Our second addition is the Templar Park exhibit, which celebrates the 100 year anniversary of the Arch. Lastly, our Flood of 1993 exhibit focuses on local oral histories from 1993 and how the infrastructure that was developed reduced the flooding in 2024.

We have also updated old exhibits such as Abbie’s Story. This exhibit focuses on who Abbie was and her life since the 1857 massacre. If you would like to learn more about our exhibits please visit the Museum Exhibits page. This page will navigate you through all of our current exhibits and highlight some of the artifacts museum visitors will see when they come to visit.

We look forward to seeing you!
