Top places to visit

1. 5.0 Gateway to Northeast Iowa Welcome Center (3 reviews)
   - Its a Welcome Center, Its an Art Shop, Its a massive Tornado Shelter, Its Wonderful
   Spent < 1 hour Visitor Centers
   Talk about hidden jewels; randomly stopped here once and ended up stopping there every time we've passed by since, whether we needed to or not. The gift shop has lots of reasonably priced local Art for sale and the kids just love this gift shop. The restrooms are pleasant and relaxing. The welcome center attendants are fine representatives of the area. And finally, this place seems to have the largest and sturdiest tornado shelter in Iowa. See more..

   Visited the fair grounds to watch the Iowa Harness Racing event. There were 9 different races run and it was fun to watch. You had the opportunity to pick the winner for each race; 3 people were randomly drawn from the correct picks for a prize after each race. See more..

   We’re Old Bradford Pioneer Village, and we’ve been a historical place museum here in Nashua, IA, since 1948. We specialize in Civil War reenactment and historical preservation, and we offer 14 historical and original buildings, historical artifacts, farmers market, and much more.
