Shattuck Windmill Museum and Park features 45 vintage windmills. No two are the same -- ranging from the little 5-foot "Star Sephyr" to the big 18-foot "Samson." An original half-dugout soddy, dating to the early 1900s, and a 1901 prairie homestead house give a glimpse of how early settlers lived and why they needed these beautiful mills and the life-giving water they provided. Visit the museum and park's merchantile store. The Shattuck Windmill Museum & Park was established in 1994 and is lit for the holidays each December.
