点评:The Museum of Danish America is located in Elk Horn, IA a ten minutes drive off I-80 Exit 54.
Admission to the museum is USD 7 with reductions for families. Good parking is available in front of the museum. Elk Horn has links to Denmark as a number of Danish imiigrants settled here in the 1860’s.
The collections of the museum are extensive with several interesting artifacts and stories about the immigrants, including why they left, how they settled and made a living in the US and how they assimilated into American society. Some interesting exhibits include Danish products including a beautifully restored 1950 Nimbus Motorbike and porcelain by Royal Copenhagen. Famous entertainer Victor Borge also donated his Hindsberg grand piano to the museum.
A well stocked gift shop should also be mentioned.

博物馆藏品丰富,有许多关于移民的有趣文物和故事,包括他们离开的原因、他们如何在美国定居和谋生以及如何融入美国社会。一些有趣的展品包括丹麦产品,包括一辆经过精心修复的 1950 年 Nimbus 摩托车和皇家哥本哈根瓷器。著名艺人 Victor Borge 还向博物馆捐赠了他的 Hindsberg 三角钢琴。
