The Dells Country Historical Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich history of the Dells County area in Wisconsin. They operate the Bowman House Museum, a beautifully restored Prairie Style home built in 1904, which showcases artifacts and images that depict the history of the Dells, including its Native American heritage, the impact of tourism, and the contributions of General Joseph Bailey during the Civil War.

Visitors to the museum can explore various rooms dedicated to different aspects of the area's history, such as the Bennett Gallery, which displays the photography of H.H. Bennett, and the Blacksmith Shop, which exhibits tools used by local blacksmiths. With its antique furnishings, carefully preserved wood floors, and a collection of memorabilia from local families, the Bowman House Museum offers a fascinating glimpse into the past of the Dells County area.
