What makes it fun
The Shoal Creek Living History Museum consists of 21 structures, 13 of which are actual 19th century structures ranging from 1807 to 1885. To create a town environment, we transported antique log cabins and homes from neighboring counties. The grounds are open from dawn to dusk every day. The buildings, however, are only open for special events. Use our Walking Tour Guide Booklet, which includes building details, for self-guided tours. Brochures are also available at the information box at the front door, the kiosk, and the mercantile front porch. Picnic among the enormous shade trees and catch a peek of the bison at the museum's entrance. The structures are open during our special events, and re-enactors bring the village to life with skits, conflicts, and demonstrations.
