LeClaire, which sits on the Mississippi river, is home to fewer than 4,000 residents. It is best known as the birthplace of Buffalo Bill.

The store, which was was once a fabrication shop, is located close to Bettendorf, Iowa, where Mike Wolfe was raised.

Opened in 2011, the second store resides in Nashville, Tennessee, where Wolfe currently calls home. It was once a Marathon Motor Works car factory from the late 1800s.

Both spaces are designed to be half-shop, half-museum, and are filled to the brim with antiques, collectibles, and unique home decor.

Wolfe travels more than 70,000 miles a year across the United States hand-picking items for Antique Archaeology.

Due to the pandemic, the stores are currently closed. You can visit antiquearchaeology.com for updates on hours or call 563-265-3939.
