The 2025 Holiday Tours at Wilson Place Museum are a wonderful celebration of history, community, and the magic of the season. This year’s tours bring together dedicated volunteers, festive décor, and meaningful progress that will support the museum well into the future.
A Remarkable Team of Volunteers
At the heart of this season’s success is our incredible team of volunteers. From decorating and greeting guests to sharing stories and managing logistics, their time, care, and enthusiasm made every tour welcoming and memorable. Their commitment is truly what brings Wilson Place to life.
Sharing Menomonie’s Story
Over the course of our Holiday Tours, visitors experienced the rich history of Menomonie through the beautifully decorated rooms and stories of this remarkable home. It has been a joy to welcome both local and out-of-town guests and to see them connect with the past in such a personal and festive setting. We invite you to join us for this unique holiday experience.

A Festive Transformation
Wilson Place was transformed for the holidays with 24 Christmas trees displayed across 16 rooms, each adding its own charm and character. Inside and out, the home glowed with seasonal décor and exterior lights, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere that captured the spirit of the holidays.
Meaningful Steps Forward
This season also marked important progress for the museum. We successfully introduced online ticket sales through a ticketing platform and can now accept credit cards in the gift shop, making visits more convenient for our guests and helping support the ongoing preservation of Wilson Place.
With Gratitude
The success of the Wilson Place Holiday Tours is something we are deeply grateful for. Thank you to our volunteers, guests, and supporters who help to make this season so special. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the year ahead as we continue to share Menomonie’s history and celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Wilson Place Museum.
