Nestled in the heart of Wilton, Iowa, lies a testament to a bygone era: the Wilton Candy Kitchen. Established in 1867, this historic establishment boasts the title of potentially the oldest continuously operating ice cream parlor, soda fountain, and confectionery in the United States. Stepping inside is like stepping back in time, with its vintage décor, checkered floors, and the delightful aroma of sweet treats.

A Legacy of Sweetness:

Standing proudly amidst the rolling plains of eastern Iowa, the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Depot in Wilton is a testament to a bygone era of train travel. Built in 1898, this historic brick structure has witnessed the bustling days of steam locomotives and the evolution of a small town. Today, it stands as a vibrant community center, a testament to the power of preservation and a reminder of Wilton's rich railroad heritage.
