Description

Located near the Vasa Lutheran Church (1869), this museum celebrates one of Minnesota's first Swedish-American settlements. The building (1862), considered a center for early Swedish culture, has been restored to its 1901 appearance. The Vasa Lutheran Church was founded in 1855 by Eric Norelius, who also founded Gustavus Adolphus College and several other Swedish Lutheran Churches in the area. Norelius also helped to establish Minnesota's first orphanage (1865) in Vasa. Norelius is buried beside the church.
