I have been to Virginia City many times, and only have been here once! It was a cute little place with a lot of cool things to look at. If you are a penny collector like my kids, this would be the place to go get that penny flattened!
Absolutely loved it!! We spent at least an hour here and got to see an array of history! The gentleman at the counter came around and talked with the kids about even more history of the pieces that were displayed. Very glad we went!!
Nicest stop today! Kind, knowledgeable lady at desk. So much to see & read about the area!
Love this place! The staff was super friendly to us and made the whole experience even better
A fun, quirky little museum in historic Virginia City, MT. The museum isn’t very large but is full of all kinds of historical memorabilia related to the history of the area. I particularly liked the information on the dredges that were used in the area after all of the easy gold had been found and most miners had taken off for greener pastures nearer Bozeman. I had no idea previously how they functioned or what they actually did to the landscape through which they worked.nnSome people might be attracted to this museum to see the replica of Club Foot George’s foot or the petrified cat — oddities from the area but I found the historical artifacts and information of more interest during my visit. The volunteers that work here are always good to chat with as well and can tell you all kinds of information about the area that as a visitor you probably wouldn’t find out about any other way.
