Join the Cook County Historical Society for live blacksmith demonstrations at the Bally Blacksmith Shop in downtown Grand Marais.

Bally Blacksmith Shop was built in 1911 and housed three generations of the Bally family blacksmiths, totaling 98 years of Bally blacksmiths. The metal Forest Service building behind the shop was added to the site in the 1960s. The Bally shop has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1986. The Cook County Historical Society acquired the building in 2013.
