Imagine a museum where you can make an earthquake, walk through a mine tunnel, shoot off a quarry blast, touch a dinosaur bone and make it rain. That’s t he Weis!
Everyone from the advanced collector to the youngster who just started picking up rocks will be amazed at the marvelous minerals and fabulous fossils on display.
While you’re having lots of hands-on, interactive fun, you’ll discover that there were once volcanoes, mountains, and tropical reefs right here in Wisconsin. In fact, you’ll learn that every rock tells a story, and you can learn how to read them for yourself!
