Event details

Have you ever wondered what’s going on in our 18th-century Traders Cabin or wanted to peek inside the Native American longhouse above the pollinator garden? This is your chance to explore all the buildings at Isle a la Cache Museum and learn about the French fur traders and the Potawatomi who once called this area home.

You can also check out the traveling “Indige-Facts” exhibit on loan from the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian to learn about Native peoples today. Drop in for self-guided exploration during normal operating hours.
