About LeClaire, Iowa

Situated along the beautiful bend on the upper Mississippi River at the intersection of I-80, LeClaire was home to the brave river pilots who navigated the treacherous Upper Rapids between Le Claire and Rock Island, Illinois.

LeClaire is home to fine restaurants, shops and American Archeology, the business made famous by American Pickers, Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz. Relax along the scenic streets of this historic river town that exudes turn-of-the-century charm and elegance. Located just a few short miles north of the Quad Cities, Le Claire offers an experience that will last a lifetime. Be sure to include a stop at the Buffalo Bill Museum. This museum is so much more than a tribute to Buffalo Bill. There is history specific to LeClaire, the Mississippi River, Steamboats, Civil War, Native Americans and more.
