  This small museum was wonderful ! It told of Mojave County and how it was influenced by the Hualapai Indians, mining, the railroad, ranching, the military and the building of Boulder Dam. For you movie buffs, there was also a section devoted to Kingman's native son Andy Devine!!!! We allowed ourselves an hour and a half. It was not enough time to enjoy all the museum had to offer.

  Very good museum to learn about little known facts historical to the area. Exhibits are well thought out and displayed in a concise manner. The museum staff are very helpful in explaining any exhibit. Well worth a stop.

  I liked the story of the settler who was captured by one tribe and sold to another tribe who tattooed her chin before she was freed. I preferred to have larger print in the displays or have them raised higher up.

  There were so many interesting displays, one could easily spend a couple hours in here just looking at everything and reading everything. I'd really recommend this to everyone.For $4 you get a pass to this museum, the Route 66 museum and the Bonelli house. Well worth much more $$$.

  We stopped here on way out of town on Route 66. It's a nice well thought out museum with lots of history and artifacts of the local Kingman area, AZ and the desert southwest. The 2 staff people we met were both very nice and friendly. It's worth the stop while driving through town.

  I really enjoyed learning of the settling of Kingman and seeing old relics. Very informative, and it was a wonderful break from a tedious day of business I was conducting in Kingman.

  A very worthwhile place to spend some time after the Route 66 museum, includes a fair bit about the Indian tribes & local mining activities.

  This somewhat small museum is full of interesting displays and artifacts that help a traveler better understand the significance of the area and it's importance in Arizona history. Great folks working there and a fine gift shop as well. A worthy stop on Rt.66.

  Absolutely loved this little gem of a museum. It's small but it's packed full of wonderfully put together exhibits on everything from native people to Andy Devine to mining to Old West to local wildlife. I was so impressed at the attention to detail. I took my husband, my father, and my 4 year old son and we all loved it! It is very small but totally worth spending an hour or so checking out the exhibits. And when you purchase entry to this museum the ticket includes the Powerhouse Route 66 Museum and the Bonelli House.

  This was our first time visiting inside, although my husband did photograph the outside back in October when we were returning from a family reunion in Phoenix. My niece especially enjoyed the Indian displays, I didn't realize she was such a fan of Native American culture until she and her father accompanied us to attend the Route 66 Festival. Great price, nice gift shop, and I just had to get some "rock candy" jellybeans, which I hardly ever see any more.
