About the Dorothy Molter Museum

The Dorothy Molter Memorial Foundation located in Ely, Minnesota, was formed to preserve and interpret her legacy. Dorothy's homestead was dismantled in 1987 and transported by dogsled and snowmobile to Moose Lake, and then on to Ely where volunteers restored two of her cabins. We invite you to not only visit our website, but to also stop by our museum where the root beer is always cold and Dorothy's story lives on.
