Mineral County Museum

Mineral County Museum

The Mineral County Museum, free to all, opened in 1977 in response to the nation's bicentennial. It is also a repository of all local newspapers and many historical documents. In 1989 it expanded to become a resource center for Captain John Mullan and the Mullan Trail which runs the full length of Mineral Company All persons are welcome. Appointments are necessary for tours due to the lack of enough volunteers to staff the museum full time.
