Exploring the history of the county, the hall run by the Anoka County Historical Society has a number of detailed displays. A semi-permanent exhibit, "From Roots to Roofs" traces the history of Anoka County's 21 communities while past ones have included themes such as "Picturing Anoka County", with a huge range of photographs detailing area history, and an exhibit on the impact of the Vietnam War on the region.
