Seeing, touching, smelling, hearing and tasting the story of flour milling at Mill City Museum make learning this important chapter in Minnesota history a piece of cake.

School Tours

Mill City Museum offers educational programs for students from kindergarten through high school. These programs are available for school (public, private or home) groups only.

Teachers choose from three field trip themes: People, Power and Flour. Students discover the unique spaces within Mill City Museum while exploring water as power, the cultural significance of flour, or interacting with real and imagined characters from our past. Cook from scratch in our Baking Lab, build a Mill City in the Water Lab, ride the world's only Flour Tower, or visit the observation deck for a birds-eye view of the Mississippi River.
