What a great museum! Jean, Kellen and Dan were so welcoming and a wealth of information and ideas. I was amazed to find they have program or events every week. (kudos to Mary Ann who wasn’t there that day!). The line up of events has something for all ages and some truly unique offerings—like the History Uncorked featuring mock trials from the past. Outstanding newsletter as well! Because it was off season many of their displays and were not open but the Music exhibit was great! Loved the saddle for the traveling music teacher. Kellen directed us to two other Owatonna “don’t miss” places: the Louis Sullivan designed bank building from 1908 and Costas Candy across the street from the bank. Lots to see and do in Owatonna but I suggest you start with the Steele County museum!

Visited Steele County Historical Center twice this past summer. As a person who grew up in Steele County, a Society member and widely published author, I felt most unwelcome. I am in regular contact with libraries and historical societies across the country and must say that the person I dealt with was one of the least cooperative and unpleasant that I have been in contact with. I will not renew membership and will not be back.
Response from the owner
Hello Ronald. I am sorry that you had a poor experience conducting research with us. If you would contact the History Center and ask to speak with our Director, he would be happy to speak with you and discuss this further.

You can’t walk around anymore.They took all the exhibits down.Now it’s just a place for meetings and stuff like that!
Response from the owner
Hello Devlin. I apologize that you were unable to walk through our exhibit hall at the moment. However, we have not removed our exhibits, but are simply in the process of changing them at the moment. We recently removed the exhibits that had run in 2021 and are finishing the installation of two brand new exhibits that will be open by the middle of this week. We hope you are able to come out and see them soon!
