Description

Dakota City Heritage Village is a 1900-era village and museum dedicated to connecting people to the rural past. Located in Farmington, Minnesota, just 30 minutes south of the Twin Cities, on the Dakota County Fairgrounds.

The Village Experience tour visits about nine buildings where children can try various period activities (e.g. using a stereoscope, handling items in the blacksmith's shop, rug beating, writing on a slate board in the class room, going inside the jail cell, etc). The tour is about an hour and forty five minutes; we then get thirty minutes to eat our bag lunches, then all paid attendees get an ice cream cone. If you have food allergies, let me know. They do have alternative treats if they're notified in advance.

*Note that only paid attendees get a treat, as the cost is included in the admission fee. If you have a child under 2, they can attend for free, but would have to share a cone with a parent or sibling.

For parking, our web map is a little off; we are located south of Hwy
50, take Akin Road south to a left on Ash street to 2nd street.  You
drive south (turn right) on 2nd street to the Dakota City sign and can
park on the side of the road there.  A costumed guide will meet the
class by the sign.  With the confirmation letter I will send in the
spring, I will also send a better map and details for meeting and
touring.
