Review:
Founded in 1973, the Wamego Historical Society and Museum was first opened in the 1866 Union Pacific Railroad stone workshed. The Wamego Historical Society’s Prairie Town Village began during the 1980’s. Both the village and the museum are located in a 20-acre, beautiful city park in Wamego, Kansas. The Wamego Historical Society’s historic Prairie Village and museum features authentic 1800’s buildings, as well as history tracing the transformation of Pottawatomie County and Wamego in particular from the area’s first inhabitants, the Potawatomie and Konza Indians to the Underground Railroad. There’s also artifacts from the 1893 Columbian Exposition on display.
