PIONEER VILLAGE
Relive America's Golden Yesterdays.
You have to see it to believe it...
The largest private collection of Americana
anywhere. The Pioneer Village complex comprises 28
buildings on 20 acres housing over 50,000
irreplaceable items of historical value, restored to
operating order, arranged in groups and also in the
chronological order of their development. There are
12 historic buildings around the circular "green".
There's a Frontier Fort, a real honest-to-goodness
Pony Express Station, an Iron Horse, and a home made
of sod. There's a general store and a toy store,
chock full of all the goods from yesteryear. An
original art collection including 25 Currier and
Ives prints, 23 Jackson paintings, and the largest
single collection of Rogers statues. You can ride a
priceless steam carousel, see 17 historic flying
machines and marvel at 100 antique tractors. See a
1902 Cadillac and a 1903 Ford, both designed by
Henry Ford, plus 350 other antique cars, all
displayed in their order of development. For a
relaxing trip into yesterday, come to Pioneer
Village.
