Review:

The Rice Museum was constructed in 1842 and is located in the city’s Front Street Business District. It was originally used as a jail before a clock tower was built on top of it. The jail soon closed afterward and the building was converted into a local history museum. Exhibits inside the museum highlight how rice played an important role in the development of the area. Other artifacts inside include maps and paintings. Attached to the Rice Museum is the Kaminski Hardware Building which features a unique pulley system once used to hoist merchandise up and down its three stories.
