Museum's Flock Grows at Viterbo College Museum
The Viterbo College Museum in La Crosse traces its origins to the 1890 Tri-State Fair when Sisters Seraphine Kraus and Margaret Kralewski began taxidermy collecting at the convent school. Now it houses more than 500 birds and mammals plus miniature machines dolls antiques woodcarvings and Indian artifacts. The museum on Market Street between 9th and 10th Streets is open Mondays year round and 2 to 5 pm daily in summer.
