The Pioneer Museum is a treasure for history buffs and antique lovers. It is filled with beautifully preserved and restored furniture and collectors' items.
Have you ever wondered what great-grandma's kitchen looked like in the late 1800's? How she cooked? Where she entertained guests? How she shopped without a supermarket? Perhaps you've wondered about grandpa's school days, or his days at the office, in the mine or on the farm. The Pioneer Museum holds the answers. And if you'd like to indulge in a little speculation about lawmen and outlaws, you'll find items from their past too.
The Pioneer Museum will grasp your imagination and take you back to explore an era barely remembered.
