Danish Windmill
The Danish Windmill in Elkhorn was built in Nørre Snede, Denmark in 1848. Today it is a working museum, showing visitors the inside workings of a historic mill. It is the only authentic, working, Danish windmill in America because shortly after it was moved a law was passed in Denmark stating that no more mills were allowed out of the country. Elk Horn, Iowa has one of the highest concentrations of Danish immigrants in the United States. In 1975, Elk Horn, IA resident Harvey Sornson fell in love with the rural landscape of his ancestral home. When he returned to Elk Horn, he asked to have a “crazy idea” fulfilled—to bring one of Denmark's windmills to the United States. The town supported Sornson’s idea and raised enough money to purchase, disassemble, and ship the windmill to the United States. Every timber of the mill was marked and documented as it came down. Because there were no existing blueprints, a scale model was created and shipped with the freight to America. The windmill arrived on large trucks on February 7, 1976 and volunteers had it rebuilt and operating by March 1977. The complex also features a replica of a 900AD Viking smithy’s home and workshop, the tiny Morning Star Chapel and a replica of the village of Ebeltoft, Denmark. The museum store features Danish cultural heritage gifts, books, foods, collectibles from Royal Copenhagen and Bing & Grøndahl and is an Iowa Welcome Center.

Swedish Heritage & Cultural Center
The Swedish Heritage and Cultural Center is operated by the Stanton Historical Society which began in 1970, Stanton’s 100th birthday.
In 1993, the old main school building (built in 1885) was being vacated and sold. Elman Sandell, a 1940 alumnus, paid for the winning bid so that it could become a museum. After a year+ of renovation and exhibit construction, SHCC officially opened in 1995, including its first Midsommar’s Dag festival.
In 2015, the nationally renowned “world’s largest Swedish coffeepot” was deactivated as a water tower and moved to the Center’s lot. It was repaired and repainted in 2016, and now in 2018, is in the process of landscaping.
So . . . besides the coffeepot, what’s inside? The usual tour begins with a brief history of the Swedish immigration to the founding of Stanton. In that area there can be found artifacts and photos of Stanton’s history into the 20th century. Elsewhere on the main floor is a restored classroom of about 1930-1950, the gift shop, a 1900-1940 timeline, a Children’s Home exhibit, and a growing library for genealogy, Stanton history, also Swedish history and culture. A resident, former resident or a descendant thereof can usually find a record of the residence in Stanton and/or the rural county.
Upstairs are exhibits about the town baseball team, the local FFA, barbed wire, the Essex bank, part of the libraries of Pastor Halland, Pastor A. Leonard Smith and son Dr. Leonard Smith, and others in progress.
In November of each year, the Society serves a traditional Swedish holiday meal, including lutfisk. In June at the Midsommar’s Dag event, Swedish pancakes and sausage are served. Swedish dances performed by the Svenska Skolan students follow.
