HISTORICAL FIGURES IN
ALMELUND
Many Swedish
immigrants are located in Almelund.
They can't vote, eat
or even speak - but they are located throughout
Almelund and at the museum and want you to find
them! The hand-painted figures
depict the history of the village. Can you
find them all? This is a fun
event for children!

Mill gunny sack.

lutefisk barrel.
