Visit
Experience a day with the Dutch right here in Iowa! Attending one of the Pella Historical Village’s special events or taking a self-guided tour is an educational adventure for school groups, clubs, and families. See how early settlers lived in sod houses, how blacksmiths worked, where Wyatt Earp lived as a child, and play in the puppet theater and music rooms! With so many things to do at the Museum, you'll want to spend the entire day!

We cannot allow other dogs, pets, or animals, including those whose sole function is to provide comfort, emotional support, companionship, or therapy. Thank you for understanding.
