About Our Tours

We are one of Wisconsin's longest-running museums, having opened to the public in 1932. We strive to provide quality tours that are both informative and enjoyable. All tours are docent-guided. A typical tour lasts approximately an hour, although tour lengths and topics can be adjusted to suit your needs and interests, so please just ask. Joint tickets are available for admission to both the Historic Indian Agency House and Fort Winnebago Surgeon's Quarters, which is located just 1.5 miles from the Historic Indian Agency House along Highway 33.​ We look forward to your visit.  Thank you for your interest in the Historic Indian Agency House. **Please note: If there are 12 or more people in your group, we suggest that you contact us ahead of time so we can reserve a time slot for your group tour. We also host school field trips in the spring and fall (May being the busiest month), so we may not be able to accommodate public tours on some of the field trip days; please consider calling ahead or visiting on a weekend instead during those times. 

Group Tours

Please contact us to schedule a tour for your school group, bus tour group, or other large group. We will work with you to plan your special day with us. We can also coordinate with the Fort Winnebago Surgeons Quarters down the road and the Museum at the Portage if you wish to visit two or all three sites the same day. We are often able to offer special rates for large groups, as well. Alternatively, you may arrange for History on the Move to come to your school or facility. We will design a great custom learning experience for you!
