About Mid-America Windmill Museum

The Mid-America Windmill Museum, founded in 1992, displays 52 windmills on its grounds and in its barn. Its mission is to collect, display, and preserve the story of wind power, from early origins through the American windmill to today. Visitors can join a volunteer-led tour or walk a self-guided route through the barn and grounds. The site also hosts annual special events and rents Baker Hall, a building erected in 2001 that is used for public gatherings.
