  • The museum is interesting right from the parking lot. Three unique bike racks provide a place to park your bike. For those who wish to bike, traffic can be heavy especially if you are coming from...

  • We loved the museum and it took us over an hour to go through it. There is an entry fee, which was fine. Amazing information about the tornado that hit the town!

  • One of the best $5 investments to be had anywhere. Enticing exhibits on so many historical aspects of the greater community. Civil War, WW1, WW2, agriculture, fur trade, farming, civic development, ethnic and religious diversity. Vignettes so tastefully done using some of the original names of local vendors and practitioners. If you're not just a little impressed, you should be.
  • We had a great time on a rainy day here! One child & adult $5.00 admission well worth the price we spent an hour and a half wondering and looking at everything plenty for children to see there are checklist that they can take from the front desk to explore and find things that are in the museum so they can learn. Otter Tail County Museum has an incredible amount of Native American arrowheads artifacts and beating that should be on display there hidden away in drawers this is a shame but if you take the time and get to pull them open and take a look can also learn about the Minnesota woman that was found and family farm site where the Native American artifacts were found. Lots of Agriculture and antique farm machinery steam engines in vintage store post office Bank railroad to show and learn about the history of the people that developed this area from the Anishinaabe & the Lakota including finlanders, Scandinavians, Mexican, as well many diverse cultures of people who currently live here in Fergus Falls Minnesota it is within a a mile-ish from the intersection of Interstate 94 The gift shop has an extremely large amount of locally written books about the history the foods recipes culture Native American history for purchase as well as books and coloring books for interest for children with history and science. T-shirt and knick-knacks as well
