Pella Historical Society and Museums will close for the winter this week. The Historical Village remains open every weekday from 12:30 to 5 p.m. through Wednesday. Pella Historical Society then enters a hibernation, where Executive Director Valerie Van Kooten says they often work to improve their various exhibits and historical displays, and also prepare for the upcoming Tulip Time celebration. The Pella Historical Village and Vermeer Windmill traditionally reopen by the first day of spring in March.
