Titan Toy Museum

The Stempel Bird Museum, located in Macedonia, IA, is a renowned institution dedicated to the preservation and display of Dr. Guido Louis Stempel's exceptional bird and butterfly collections. Dr. Stempel, a self-made authority in ornithology and entomology, donated his collection of 312 birds to the Pottawattamie County Conservation Board in 1967. The museum's mission is to allow future generations to observe endangered species and those on the brink of extinction, fulfilling Dr. Stempel's vision. Dr. Guido Stempel's life journey from Germany to the United States, settling in Iowa, and his passion for nature are intricately woven into the museum's history. Born in 1836, Dr. Stempel's love for flora and fauna was nurtured during his early years in Germany. After immigrating to the United States with his family, he faced numerous challenges but eventually found his calling in medicine and became a respected physician. The Stempel Bird Museum stands as a testament to his dedication and serves as a valuable resource for bird and insect enthusiasts.Generated from the website
