We had our own private tour. The volunteer who provided the tour was friendly and very informative. At first I thought it was going to be short and over quickly but was pleasantly surprised to see it wasnt. Plan on about 1.5 hrs here. Well worth the small fee collected to learn of the history in Froelich. General store has items from the time period that were brought by train. I thought the behive piece was neat.. kids loved that they were allowed to touch and try out the things used back in the 1800's and beyond. Finally a museum they weren't forbidden to touch things. Very cool!

Kids love this place! So fun to spend time learning and discovering the history on the first powered tractor. We've been twice and will be back. The tour guide is super friendly!!

Loved seeing it as it would have been many years ago. Great for children.
-
Awesome little museum commemorating the town where the first gasoline tractor was invented, but blink and you'll miss it. We arrived in the middle of a torrential rainstorm and the docent was so accommodating and welcoming. Don't expect fancy interactive exhibits, this is a legitimate no-frills local history museum that's a great snapshot of small town America.
