“Learn about Iowa military history”
Learn about Iowa military history from 1846 to the present. See uniforms; flags; trench art; small weapons; artillery; aircraft and tanks. Also features the Iowa State Patrol. Reference library available.
This was a fun museum! Free admission with interactive exhibits. All three of our kids loved this place and were sad to leave!
A heads up, this is actually located in a military facility, Camp Dodge. You’ll need to check in at the front gate and follow signs to the museum. But it was a neat experience. Google maps directed us a back way from interstate 35, through Polk City that put us on 415 across Saylorville Lake. It was another unique experience that added to the fun.
