The Renville County Historical Society collected and displayed more than 150 years of bridal fashion in 2022. The dresses ranged from a black Victorian number from the 1880s to two dresses from 2020, illustrating how weddings were impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. The dresses were exhibited during the Renville County Fair in August.
The Renville County Historical Society, established in 1940, has been collecting, cataloguing and sharing its county and cities' history for 80 years. It is a county rich with history, and the society's museum illustrates that with exhibits ranging from the area's geology, military history and the day-to-day lives of its residents both past and present.
