A small museum that pays tribute to local companies that have been involved in technology. The main display is for Cray Supercomputers, which still operates in this small town.

Very nice museum with a number of iconic mainframe computers, many by Cray Research. In addition, rooms devoted to local companies that produce corrugated paper packaging and displays, firefighting trucks, Linenkugel beer and others. The docent was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Well worth the stop...
