The Mendota Museum Historical Society is dedicated to preserving the rich history and heritage of the Mendota area, with a particular focus on the influence of the railroad and early cultivation tools and practices in shaping the Great American Prairie.
With a collection of museums including the Union Depot Railroad Museum, Hume-Carnegie Museum, and Breaking the Prairie Museum, visitors can explore the fascinating stories and artifacts that bring the history of Mendota to life, from a lifelike HO train layout of Mendota in the 1930s to a display of Mendota's past in a restored 1904 Carnegie Library.
