Old Dutch Mill and Wamego Museum Complex
The Old Dutch Mill was built in 1879 on the Schonhoff farm, 12mi/19km north of Wamego. In 1924, a group of area businessmen came up with the idea of moving the structure to Wamego where it was reconstructed in its present location. The Wamego Museum displays local memorabilia.
