About Us:
The current museum, dedicated in 1994, was preceded by the original museum located at the fairgrounds. A limestone statue of a draft horse from the Woodston Big Barn graces the front of the museum. The statue was carved by Pete Felton, a well-known Hays, Kansas artist. Frank Walker, a local farmer and businessman, donated the building and many items to the Rooks County Historical Society allowing them to complete what has become one of the nicer museums in Northwest Kansas.
Hours: Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and by appointment by calling our number.
