Historic Buildings & Museum

Our world-class exhibits are curated with history in mind. Our collections contain historic and cultural artifacts that interpret the 2000-year story of the American Southwest. Each of the five buildings and the multiple exhibits in them will engage your curiosity.

With original floors and walls, you can sit at the desks and imagine yourself learning math in a one-room school.
