BANNER COUNTY MUSEUM COMPLEX

ROCK BUILDING . . .GENERAL STORE

The rock building was completed in 2004.  The rock used for construction came from a house built in early days in the southeastern part of the county.  The rock was hauled to the original site from nearby hills.  This building completes the museum's display of early construction materials, sod, log and rock, used by pioneers. 

The building has been made into a general store and is stocked to depict the types of merchandise available in 1900 along with 1900 prices. It also houses a post office and a schedule of stage lines into and out of Harrisburg at that time.

You will find everything from butter churns to buttons, sunbonnets to stoves, potatoes to pots and pans in this store. 

Museum Open House will be Saturday, June 7, 2008.
