Illinois Rural Heritage Museum | Home Welcome You are cordially invited to visit the Museum. Click here for directions or see the Information Tab under Visitors. For some the Museum brings back memories of challenging times when manual labor and exposure to weather extremes were required to earn a living. The more mature visitors remember their dads exposure to the heat and dust on a vintage tractor or combine.
