Culture and heritage
Old Capitol Museum
I'm not sure what I'm doing.Old Capitol Museum occupies the former Iowa capitol, recognizable by its golden dome in the heart of the university campus. Inside, restored rooms, political furniture and exhibitions place Iowa City in its role as the first capital of the state, while keeping the atmosphere of the Pentacrest very lively.
Culture and heritage
University of Iowa Museum of Natural History
The University of Iowa Museum of Natural History maintains a classical university museum atmosphere, with birds, mammals, fossils, dioramas and educational showcases in Macbride Hall. His collection speaks to families as well as to the curious natural history, especially to understand the ancient landscapes, species and traces of the Midwest.
Place indismissible
Iowa Avenue Literary Walk
I'm not sure what I'm doing.Iowa Avenue Literary Walk inscribed in the sidewalk of quotations and authors' names related to Iowa, between the campus and the city center. This discreet walk reminds the square d Iowa City in American writing, with bookstores, cafes and university buildings that naturally prolong the literary theme.
Nature and panorama
Devonian Fossil Gorge
Devonian Fossil Gorge exhibits an ancient seafloor bare near the Coralville Dam, where fossil corals and forms are distinguished in the rock. The site transforms a short walk into a very concrete geological observation, especially after understanding that these traces date back to a lost sea.
