Event details
Have you ever wondered what’s going on in our 18th-century Traders Cabin or wanted to peek inside the American Indian longhouse above the pollinator garden? 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.
Additionally, put yourself in the shoes of a voyageur and test your navigational skills with our compass challenge. Compasses will be provided.
Event requirements
No registration required.
Indoor facilities are accessible; the longhouse is accessible via a limestone trail. Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service to participate in this program should mention their request when registering or submit a request online no later than 48 hours before the program.
