historical village, vermeer windmill & scholte house印象
-
loved the tour through the Scholte house although a little long winded. Also loved the historical village which you can tour yourself -which is what I like doing. Sites well marked and you can look at what you are interested in. Gives a great feel for the area.

The windmill tour alone is worth it - fascinating! Lots of other buildings from different eras... filled with antiques. Nice grounds too.

The Windmill tour was very interesting but lasted a bit too long. We loved the Historic Village since it was a self guided tour and we could go as slow or fast as we wanted. Scholte House was great, the young lady who gave us a tour was very personable and knowledgeable.

Wyatt Earp lived in a home here as a child. They have Dutch style homes and show how pioneer Dutch lived when they came to Iowa. Actually interesting, especially to compare and contrast for those who have been to Netherlands. Even if you have not been to Netherlands, this is interesting and worth a visit to Pella.

The historical village was both gorgeous and fascinating. It never occured to me that the Declaration of Independance was printed in different languages. If you enjoy seeng the tools used in days passed, its's there. If you enjoy architecture and homes, it's there. If you like collections, and interesting things, such as a huge, decorative one man band instrument (really cool)' it's there. If you like old churches, well, that's there, too. And I haven't even gotten to Wyatt Earp's childhood home and the tour of the Windmill. This place is well worth the $$.

This is definitely a must see for anybody visiting Pella. The Historical Village and the Vermeer Windmill are truly the most fascinating sights to see of Iowa's Dutch heritage. Very interesting tour of the operations of the windmill that is still in use today. A leisurely stroll around the town square to savor all that Pella has to offer before heading over to the Scholte House is a perfect way to unwind. The tour of the Scholte House is marvelous with all of its beautiful woodwork for such an old house. Pella is such a lovely little town that is so clean and well kept that I know that we'll be back again in the near future.

Wonderful and impressive windmill actually was used to grind wheat for baking all sorts of bread, pastries, and other types of goodies. Beside the windmill are vintage homes that reflect typical village life in Holland in earlier days. Most enjoyable and interesting for all ages.

If you are interested in windmills, where they were started, how they work this is the place to go. This windmill was made in Holland, shipped to Pella and the re-assembled. Pella tulip festival is a must see event. Lovely tulips, everything within walking distance. The parade is great, especially at night when they are all lite up. Can't forget to have some Dutch letters and other customary dutch food. There is also a nice craft show . Buses bring people in from all area. Dutch history is very interesting.

This tour is a must for anyone that is interested in Iowa's history. With its wonderful and great Dutch settlement historical area a perfect place to unwind, reflect and savour the Dutch flavor. Stroll around the streets of this wonderful village with all the charm of days gone by. The Windmill is just truly amazing.

This is a must see. Plan to send two hours on the tour or just walking the historical grounds. We really enjoyed hearing and see the windmill operation and all abut how they constructed the windmill along with some many other things. It is worth twice the price they charge. Of yes the village on the second floor you will be amazed about the way they have done this.
