Allis Chalmers Collection

&

Museum





Reminder: Our open house is quickly approcahing and we would love to see everyone there! 

The Widlund Museum is a family-owned and operated display of Allis Chalmers tractors and memorabilia. It is the vision of Charlie and Mavis Widlund, located on their farm near Palmer, IA. Their annual open house is on the weekend BEFORE Labor Day weekend. Everthing will be on display, however we are always open for visitors, please be sure to contact us before showing up. Feel free to call us and leave a message at 712-359-2454,  we will do our best to reply in a timely manner. For those that do not know, we head to Arizona right after Thanksgiving and don't come back until Spring, so ideal times for showings would be throughout the summer.  We hope to show, inform, teach, and spark interest, people of all ages, about the history of Allis Chalmers and also share the major impact that they had on agricultural practices throughout the years. 

We would also like to point out that this website is a continuing work in progress. A lot of time and effort has gone into getting these things together and is all done with whatever time is left at the end of the day, so please bear with us and forgive us for any information that is still missing.  We will do our best to finish what we can as soon as possible. Thank you!
