If you want to get to know Pella’s history this is it! Book a tour or walk around on your own, see the history and story of Pella and how it all came to be! There is a small admission fee and can be pretty busy in the spring.

Visit the Pella Historical Society Museums and Vermeer Windmill. The Vermeer Windmill is the tallest working grain windmill in the United States! Enjoy a guided tour showcasing the ingenuity and history behind these impressive structures, and view Pella from the observation deck. Then, meander through 21 other buildings forming the Historical Village, including a blacksmith shop, wooden shoe maker shop, puppet theater, church, bakery, and the childhood home of Wyatt Earp.

A trip through the largest working windmill in America is insightful. The gift shop has many unique gifts and the village is beautiful.
