| Built
by the City of Eldon and operated by the Wapello County
Conservation Board, this new visitor center opened on
June 9, 2007. Visitors can enjoy interpretive exhibits
that examine Grant Woods’ role in Midwest Regional
Art and take a look at many examples of parodies of
the American Gothic painting. Visitors can find the
perfect memory of the Gothic House in the gift shop
or borrow a costume and pitchfork to make your own American
Gothic portrait in front of the original house.
