When you buy your tickets and enter the main (north) gate of the Western Minnesota Steam Threshers Reunion, you step inside the Mark Yaggie STEIGER HERITAGE HALL, which is a replica of the Steiger barn where Steiger tractors were built from 1957 to 1971. This impressive facility was built and donated by David and Jeri Yaggie in 2019 in memory of their son, Mark. David and Mark farmed together and owned several Steiger and CaseIH “Steiger” tractors.

The Steiger Heritage Club supports the Mark Yaggie STEIGER HERITAGE HALL by maintaining the area in and around the building. More importantly, they arrange to have a very impressive display of Steiger tractors; these include Steiger #1(also known as Barney), the first Model 105 built and sold to a customer, the first 2200 produced, Mark Yaggie’s restored 2200, the one and only 2200 Industrial tractor, a 1700, and a 1250, an 850 Logger, and other “guest” Steiger tractors.

We are very excited that WMSTR will be featuring Steiger Tractor History in 2026!

Bonanzaville, USA, is a history museum complex in West Fargo, North Dakota. Bonanzaville houses Steiger #1, a Model 105 (Steiger #4), a Tiger, and a Cougar. Bonanzaville is open year round but with limited hours during the fall, winter, and early spring.

Bonanzaville is the museum of the Cass County Historical Society; it is made up of forty buildings on 12 acres, many historic and from the region. These buildings have been moved to the museum grounds and now form a village setting. Most of the buildings have a special theme. Displays include a prairie church, a general store, a drug store, a fire station, Fargo’s first house, and a schoolhouse. There are also several newer buildings which have been constructed on the grounds including an aircraft museum and an automobile museum.
