Welcome to the Big Horn County Historical Museum, located 15 miles from the famous Battle of the Little Bighorn.

Big Horn County Historical Museum was established in 1979 and has been enchanting visitors ever since. The museum complex consists of twenty historic structures, two farm exhibit buildings and a main exhibit building which features a rotating exhibit, visitor center and gift shop.

This 22-acre site was donated to the Big Horn Historical Society for a museum. The farmhouse and barn are part of the original farm site. The other historic buildings have been moved to the museum from various locations in Big Horn County.

As you walk through the buildings that make up our museum you will see items that belonged to the first Americans to roam the high plains in search of buffalo: traders, and settlers that came in search of adventure.

In addition to special programs, educational and private tours, the museum park area is available to the public for special events such as family reunions and weddings. Just give us a call or e-mail us and we'll be happy to tell you all about it.

The museum complex continues to develop and guests will see the latest efforts as they tour the museum. Visiting this interesting and historic museum will be both enjoyable and educational.
