The
Wheels O' Time Museum

We're here to entertain and educate.  Our mission is to provide a facility where folks of all ages can come to see items representing transportation, industry, farm and home life, as well as entertainment, from times past.  We have a multitude of exhibits showing life 50 to 100 years ago.  Many displays are visitor-activated.

The museum is owned by 55 collectors.  It allows them to share their collections with the public.

After constructing the main building in 1981, it was immediately apparent that another structure was necessary.  Folks started donating everything from axes to zithers--and, along with all the autos on display, the main building was full!  The bottom line is, there are four large buildings, three of which are open to the public.
