Established in 1839, Edinburgh was the first county seat of Jones County. The pioneer village of Edinburgh exists less than a mile from Edinburgh’s original location in the center of the county. It features several historic buildings that were relocated to the village from their original locations in Jones County, including a one-room schoolhouse from Cass, a veterinary clinic and blacksmith shop from Oxford Junction, a railroad freight depot from Anamosa, log doctor’s office from Fairview, and the Lemmer log cabin from rural Jones County. There is a country church, a farm-hands house, and the museum’s main buildings that hold the treasures of Jones County and items of days gone by.
