A volunteer-run museum at Hwy 111 and Aten Rd, across from Imperial Valley College, on the Valley's pioneers, farming and irrigation, with outdoor grounds of historic buildings (Palmetto School, Rose School, Heber College, a blacksmith shop) and IID Engine 151. Kids under 6 are free, so plan more time on the grounds, and call before a July or August visit.

Was pleasantly surprised of all the cool stuff in this museum. I've lived here all my life and never stopped by. Was nice to see all the information and families that started here in the valley. Spent a few hours and still so much to see and learn. Even got to see some family in old yearbooks.

Nice museum with a real mix of objects that should have something of interest to everyone. Easy on the budget admission fee. Numerous displays for each of the ethnic groups that helped settle the area. A small military display for each of the U.S. engagements. Worth a visit.
