Old World Wisconsin looks to the future after a year of rebuilding

It's been almost a year since the tornado that tore through Eagle and Palmyra hit Old World Wisconsin, the state's historic outdoor farm and village museum. The damage that occurred last June 21 caused the site to close for over a month, but despite the damage, Old World Wisconsin has soldiered on in true frontier spirit, recovering quickly in an effort to welcome their visitors back to the site following their closure last June and July.
