The Daneville Heritage Museum strives to celebrate and document the Danish roots of the Viborg area and record the achievements of the Danish immigrants making settlement in southeastern Dakota Territory in pursuit of the American Dream in the New World. We care about sharing the history of Danish-Americans and Viborg's local history with the Viborg area and beyond, and we appreciate your support!

Happy Danish Constitution Day! Join us in celebration (June 5th) from 5-7.
We'll begin serving food at 5. Danish music, entertainment and dancing begins at 5:30.
There will also be an open house and ribbon cutting for our Daneville Heritage Machinery and Tool garage.
Usually the Danish Nisse are associated with Jul, but here at the museum we have a confirmed Nisse spotting - don't be surprised if he makes an appearance to help us celebrate!
