Set against the picturesque backdrop of Olcott Park in Virginia, MN, the Virginia Area Historical Society offers a captivating glimpse into the region's rich heritage. The museum complex is a blend of historical structures, including the former park superintendent's residence, a quaint Finnish homestead log house, and a charming 1930's tourist cabin.

Visitors can immerse themselves in the area's past through permanent exhibits that vividly showcase the logging and lumbering industries, the impactful fires of 1893 and 1900, and pay homage to Olcott Park's revered Master Gardener, Gunnar Peterson. Please note, the museum will be temporarily closed for the remainder of October and the initial weekend of November.
