Event details

Have you ever wondered what’s going on in our 18th-century Traders Cabin or wanted to peek inside the Native American longhouse? This is your chance to explore all the buildings at Isle a la Cache Museum and learn about the French fur traders and Potawatomi who once called this area home.

Drop in for self-guided exploration during normal operating hours. In honor of Earth Day, visitors will have the opportunity to chat with a naturalist about native plants and make a seed bomb to take home.
