Heritage House is the former homestead of Cedar Community’s original benefactor, William Koehl, and was built in 1865. Visitors relive history, playing an 1884 pump organ in the parlor, learning about pumping cistern water, using homemade soap to hand-wash and line-dry laundry, listen to a crank telephone and work a Victrola.

A visit to Cedar Community’s fully restored, functioning one-room schoolhouse, Ye Olde School, brings the experience of 1920s school days to life.
