DON'T JUST SEE IT, EXPERIENCE IT

We enjoy the museums, so we go to a lot of them. It is surprising that they each have something different to offer.
We found one that is so large it is a trial of endurance.
It is in Cody, Wyoming
Buffalo Bill Historical Center
This is Old West as it once was. A four part collection, of an outstanding display of western American artifacts.
From just a modest museum in a log building, to maturing into the finest museum in the country.
The Buffalo Bill Museum
This is a vast collection of personal and historic memorabilia of William F. Cody.
Guns, saddles, clothing, posters, and many other displays to numerous to mention.
The William Galley
Featuring original paintings and sculptures documenting in art, the reality of beauty of the Old West.
Paintings by many famous artists like Russell, Moran, and Remington. There are many more fine artists as well.
The Plains Indian Museum.
Displaying Native American material used by the Sioux, Cheyenne, Shoshone, Crow, Arapahoe, and Blackfoot.
Weapons tools, clothing and many many other articles of interest.
You may get there when the Indians are doing there display of dancing. It is truly beautiful. All of the colorful head dresses with leather and beaded clothing.
Cody Firearms Museum.
Firearms of all types, countries, manufactures, and periods of history containing more than 3500 pieces.
There are more guns than you have ever seen before.
Don’t make the same mistake we did. We thought you could see the entire museum in one day. It is just too huge to see everything and enjoy all that is there, by doing it that way.
Your ticket is good for two days and that is how it should be viewed.
It is a great place to spend a lot of time, with many exhibits for the children as well.
While in Cody plan to go on the Cody City Tour. It is fun and Cody has a very colorful past.
Take time to explore the Old Trail Town just outside of Cody. There are 25 historic buildings from Wyoming’s Frontier days. Some still have the bullet holes in the wall where disputes were settled.
