The Klown Doll Museum Is One of the Strangest Places You Can Go in Nebraska
Nestled along Highway 20 in Plainview, Nebraska, is one of the strangest little places at which you could ever spend an afternoon. Run entirely by volunteers, it’s a museum that is likely to delight some and downright terrify others.

It all started just before the turn of the century when an employee at the Chamber of Commerce decorated the office with clown dolls. Before they knew it, more and more dolls had been donated by well-meaning citizens, and they were in need of a larger home.

Over the years, they've collected thousands of clown dolls from countless donors. In 2007, the building had an addition added and dedicated, and it is currently open six afternoons a week. One can find clowns of all kinds here, from the friendly and cute to the bizarre and unsettling.

The Plainview Klown Doll Museum also has its very own clown band, serving as self-described "goodwill ambassadors" to visitors of Plainview. The museum is a fun and unusual Nebraskan point of pride and joy, and it is well-loved by locals and curious tourists alike. Well, the ones who aren't terrified of clowns, anyway.

If you so desired, you could volunteer your own time at the museum, keeping the clowns clean and comfortable. However, admission is always free, so you don't need to volunteer just to get your clown kick.

These little fellas have come from near and far, either to make someone's day or to totally ruin it, depending on one's opinion of clowns.

We suspect that the museum may ven be the "Klown Kapital" of the world!

If you would like to pay Stumpy and friends a visit, the Klown Doll Museum is open Monday through Saturday from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. It is closed on Sundays; after all, the clowns need their beauty rest. Besides, why is “klown” spelled with a k and not with a c? We suppose you’ll have to pay the museum a visit to find out!
