Comments/Directions:
Information sign on the depot located in the Kalona Historic village. The depot was relocated to this site and the interior is open to visitors.
In 1879 the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern Railroad came to Kalona. In time it was sold to the Rock Island Line. The Depot Agent’s family lived upstairs. The railroad terminated service to Kalona in 1969. The Depot was moved from its original site and restored by funds raised by a “Save the Depot” campaign conducted by Alpha Club, Woman’s Federated Club in 1970-1972.
