Description
For more than 80 years, visitors to the Iowa State Historical, Memorial, and Art
Building were treated to the state’s collection of historic documents, literature, portraits, and historical, geological, and archeological artifacts. This booklet is a look back at the origins of the museum. It includes some of the
Historical Department reports, legislation passed by the general assembly, newspaper and magazine articles, and photographs pertaining to the museum and library. It is a brief overview of the building’s history and some photographs
that may bring back memories, for some, of a field trip as a student.
