Montana Museums

These are just a few of the great museums from across Montana. Our larger towns and smallest communities do a really nice job of preserving local and regional history. Dinosaurs, fur trading, Native American history, mining, railroads, and the settlement of the West are all on display.

Miners Union Day will be celebrated Saturday, June 15th at the World Museum of Mining which, in itself, is also a pretty big deal. Nowhere else will you find the history, relics and stories that is contained within her walls, but on the outside is the "Hell Roarin' Gulch" where you can walk the streets of a mining boomtown and see how life was. The museum also holds the actual Orphan Girl Mine which is the only mine in America where you can take an underground tour. These incredible exhibits will be on full display and a jubilant crowd is expected.
