Ayr, North Dakota is a small town in east-central North Dakota approximately 20 miles from. In the center of town there is an open-air 'museum' of old town buildings.
Cass County Pioneer Village
The Cass County Pioneer Village was assembled by Keith Johnson of Ayr, in memory of his deceased son, Lonnie. The buildings are either original or Ayr or moved from the nearby area. While access to the building interiors appears to be 'by appointment,' the museum grounds are not fenced and are easily accessible. In 2007, Johnson was nominated for an Excellence in Local History Award by the State Historical Society of North Dakota for his work on the Pioneer Village[1].
