Title
Oskaloosa Town Square, Late 1800's; Mahaska County, Iowa
Description
Pictured here is the west side of the Oskaloosa Town Square dating back to the late 1800's. The town square/city park was the central gathering place for the residents of Oskaloosa and Mahaska County to hear major speeches, be entertained by local and traveling musicians and bands, and a place to be informed about significant news as well. On the south side of the square is the place where people would park their horse and buggy while they went around the square for various purposes.
