Bonanzaville Pioneer Village

Bonanzaville, USA is the history museum complex of the Cass County Historical Society in West Fargo, North Dakota — forty buildings gathered on 12 acres just off Interstate 94, about two and a half miles west of Fargo. Many of the structures are historic buildings from the region, relocated to the grounds to form a village setting with themed displays that include a prairie church, a general store, a drug store, a fire station, a schoolhouse, and Fargo's first house, alongside newer purpose-built museums for aircraft and automobiles. The collections run to several hundred thousand artifacts, from horse-drawn and firefighting vehicles to a telephone museum created in a donated Tower City hardware store by the US WEST Telephone Pioneers. The complex is open May through September, with event venues operating year-round, and its signature gathering — Pioneer Days, held the third weekend of August — is the largest and longest-running annual event in the Fargo–Moorhead area.
