The Toy Farmer Museum

On June 18, 1999, The Toy Farmer Museum located east of LaMoure, N.D., on the Claire and Cathy Scheibe farm, held its dedication ceremony. The event was held in conjunction with the North Dakota Toy Show in LaMoure. Since the dedication and grand opening weekend, the museum has been open for viewing during the Toy Farmer Ltd. business hours at no admittance cost. A selection of gifts and souvenir items is available in the Toy Farmer Gift Shop located in the museum.

The Barn originally built in 1916 for David Lloyd along Highway 13 by LaMoure, N.D. serving as a stable for championship draft horses. In 1946, Nicholas Meisch hired Henry Echre to move the barn to its present location. Matt Scheibe rough drafted how the barn could be revitalized in 1992 to store memorabilia of the Toy Farmer collection.
