Dakota City Heritage Village (DCHV)

Oh Gosh! We have had to cancel a major event's second weekend this year due to weather-extreme cold.

The Dakota City Heritage Village Board of Directors has been closely monitoring the weather forecast for this weekend’s Christmas in the Village event scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, December 13 and 14. Due to the forecasted extremely cold temperatures and dangerous wind chills, the event has been cancelled. Dakota City Heritage Village is committed to providing a safe and enjoyable experience for our visitors, volunteers, staff, and the horse and carriage teams.

Christmas in the Village was scheduled for its last weekend on Saturday, December 13 and 14 from 3-8pm. This warm holiday tradition has been a major fundraiser for Dakota City Heritage Village for many years. 

Please consider a donation to this special place. Your gift is 100% tax deductible. We rely on our fundraising events to support our mission of connecting through education and interpretation, current generations to the life and agricultural heritage of early twentieth century rural Dakota County. 

As each of us experience change in our society and cultures, the appreciation and sharing of history is something we can all take part in. Dakota City Heritage Village invites you to share your talents and gifts to build, grow, preserve and celebrate our connected cultures and heritage here in Dakota County. 

Thank you for your continuing support of the Dakota City Heritage Village mission.
