Talk:List of museums in Minnesota

message: This list of museums in the state was separated from List of museums in the United States on January 07, 2008. Please see List of museums in the United States for all history prior to that date.
Feel free to include Template:Infobox Museum when adding or editing articles on individual museums. Noroton (talk) 02:06, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: General Information

message: In February 2008 at Talk:List of museums in the United States, a consensus was reached on this statement on what kind of institutions to include on state museum-list articles:
:Historic houses or halls of fame may be listed if they function as or include public museums -- see Biltmore Estate, Plumb House, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Baseball Hall of Fame for examples. Art galleries that function primarily to sell art should not be listed, but public art museums that use "gallery" as part of their name may be listed. Nature centers and botanical gardens may be listed only if they contain historical or educational exhibits in a museum format.
Also inappropriate for this list are planetariums, aquaria and zoos, which have their own lists. Please follow these criteria when considering additional items for this list, or suggest changes at Talk:List of museums in the United States. Keep in mind there are lists for institutions similar to museums, as noted in the See also section of this article. Noroton (talk) 02:06, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

*Mahnomen County Historical Society
*Pine County Historical Society
*Red Lake County Historical Society  <- they only run a gallery in the courthouse not a museum.
The following county historical societies have their historic house parks listed but not their research museums:
*Chippewa County Historical Society - Swensson Farm Museum
*Lake County Historical Society - Depot Museum
*Pennington County Historical Society - Inga Geving Museum
