The Walsh County Historical Museum

Museum – Automobile Display

Located in Minto, North Dakota, The Walsh County Historical Museum fulfills an early goal of the Walsh County Historical Society. Housed in an historical prairie school that was renovated in the 1970’s, the Museum offers three stories of displays of artifacts that have been gifted to the Museum. The Museum recaptures the era of the homesteaders from the mid to late nineteenth century.
