Mansion Museum

Mission:

Educate children and adults through the Mansion Museum, reintroduce families to their past through the Leibrand-Whiteis Historical Center, and recreate the lives and livelihoods of our ancestors at Heritage Park of North Iowa.

About Us:

The Mansion Museum was built in 1899 for banker Charley Thompson and his young family. Across the street, Thompson later commissioned the building of the Summit Hotel, which today houses City Hall. In 1945, the Mansion was converted into a hotel and in 1977, was acquired and restored by the Winnebago Historical Society. Today the Mansion is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
