Downtown Logan's main feature is the tastefully landscaped plaza of the Dane G. Hansen Memorial Museum complex. Shady streets and congienial people generate a pleasant, small town atmosphere that visitors and residants thoroughly enjoy.

Settled in 1870, Logan was named after John Alexander Logan, a Civil War officer. Logan's early history is a slice of Americana with stories of greenhorn settlers who came to hunt buffalo or homestead land.

Logan has a big festival to celebrate Labor Day with live music, fireworks, and a car show. Logan's Arts & Crafts Fair is the third Saturday in September. Over 100 artists and craftsmen gather on the Plaza lawn.
