Open House: If These Walls Could Talk
Minnesota History Center
A playfully interactive exhibit, "Open House: If These Walls Could Talk," brings to life the adage "if these walls could talk" by using a single, existing house—in the "Railroad Island" neighborhood on St. Paul's East Side—as a window into the daily lives of people of the past.
Stories of families, from the first German immigrants through the Italians, African-Americans, and Hmong who succeeded them, are told through rooms representing different eras of the house. Visitors become detectives, piecing together lives of the families who made this house their home.
Admission fee $4-$8, free for children under 6 and MHS members.
