Your weekly update

If there’s something you’ve seen or heard around the state and thought, “I wonder what’s that all about?”

That’s what Curious Iowa aims to answer. Curious Iowa stories originate with questions submitted by the public and we investigate.

Curious Iowa covers everything that readers ask about from the Underground Railroad's history in Iowa to how municipal drains are un-plugged - we cover it all in an accessible, easy to understand weekly column.
