Calliope Village WELCOME TO THE PAST The question is often asked, “What is Calliope (Cal-ee-ope) Village”? Is it a museum? Is it a recreation of a piece of history? A collection? Historic site? Yes to all of the above. Calliope Village began as a vision to preserve the roots of Calliope and Hawarden history, and has since become much, much more. As you explore the buildings, you will discover quickly that not all the buildings are 1860s vintage or even exact reproductions of 1860s building styles. Nor are the contents of the buildings all from the 19th century. Calliope Village, its buildings and collections are a celebration of our local history. The Village is located on the northwest edge of Hawarden where the town of Calliope was established in 1861. Calliope was the original county seat of Sioux County until 1872 when the county seat was moved to Orange City, the result of a raid on the Court House by 55 men from Orange City. In the following years, Calliope continued to prosper but was eventually annexed into the town of Hawarden. What had once been a prospering, vibrant village on the banks of the Big Sioux River is today just another neighborhood of Hawarden. The current site of Calliope Village was purchased by the City of Hawarden in 1976. The only building on the site was the original Calliope stagecoach depot. Most of the remainder of the buildings in the Village were either moved to the site or constructed on the site. Today there are 19 buildings in the Village maintained by the Hawarden Historical Society. A partial list of buildings includes the original Stagecoach Depot, replica of the County Courthouse, jail, candy store, Veterans Museum, school and church. Collections in the buildings contain period furnishings and hundreds of historical artifacts collected from around the community. Be sure to visit the Post Office and check out the Sioux Theatre Marquee Exhibit. The Marquee was restored last year and dates back to the 1930’s.
