The Hot Springs County Museum has approximately 16,000 square feet of exhibits that interpret many aspects of area pioneer and Native American life. The museum is located on 700 Broadway Street in Thermopolis, WY.

MAIN MUSEUM
The main museum building contains about 16,000 square feet of exhibits that cover many aspects of Hot Springs County’s history such as the original Hole-in-the-Wall bar where Robert LeRoy Parker, a.k.a. Butch Cassidy as well as other notorious characters used to visit. Other Native American & Pioneer exhibits are too numerous to list here; however, a few other examples include a Yellowstone stage coach, many pioneer exhibits, firearm exhibits, and even a recreation of the town of Thermopolis where a visitor can walk down wooden boardwalks and view into recreated businesses such as photography, printing, dressmaking shops and much more!

MUSEUM ANNEX
The museum annex located right across the street from the main museum building contains an original one-room schoolhouse that was local to the area; a caboose that was used by the Burlington Northern & Santa Fe Railway; a “Poverty Shack” that was used as a home in the early 1900s; an agriculture building featuring exhibits on early agriculture and ranch life and a petroleum building featuring exhibits from the county’s petroleum industry. Outdoor exhibits at the annex feature original ranching, farming and petroleum industry equipment.
