Visit part of Selma's history at our Pioneer Village, which features 15 acres of historical buildings from the 1880s. These buildings owe their preservation to the late Art Gonzales. In 1980, Gonzales began collecting historic Selma-area buildings. They include a charming Queen Anne Victorian, St. Ansgar's Lutheran Church, the Unger Opera House (now a performing arts theater), a railroad depot, a doctor's office and Selma's first schoolhouse. You'll also see a collection of agricultural equipment and tools, household furnishings toys, and antique medical and office equipment. The village hosts a variety of festivals year-round. Several picnic areas are located on the grounds.
