Housed in a former bank from the early 1900s, the museum tells the story of Winslow's railroad roots, the famous Mother Road, and the people who helped shape the area. You'll find vintage photos, Native American artifacts, railroad memorabilia, and exhibits that bring northern Arizona's past to life. It's not a huge museum, but if you enjoy uncovering the stories behind the places you visit, it's well worth spending a little time there. Sometimes the smallest museums have the biggest personalities, and this one is a nice reminder that Winslow is much more than just a famous corner to stand on.

The exhibits are fascinating, covering everything from the geology of Northern Arizona to the region's wildlife and the rich history and cultures of the Native peoples. The museum sits on beautiful natural grounds that are worth walking through as well. We brought our 18-month-old, 3-year-old, and 5-year-old, and all of them had a great time while actually learning a lot. There are so many interactive elements, including an animal scavenger hunt, pull-out drawers throughout the exhibits, videos, and hands-on displays you can touch. There's also a discovery area with books and toys that our kids absolutely loved. We spent about two hours here, and it was time well spent. If you're visiting Flagstaff, or even if you've been coming here for years like I have, don't make the mistake of overlooking this gem. I'd absolutely recommend it for families and anyone interested in the natural and cultural history of Northern Arizona.

The Sedona Heritage Museum was different from other museums I've visited. While it wasn't very…read moreinteractive, there were plenty of readings and QR codes to scan for audio recordings, which added depth to the experience. It was especially interesting to learn about the family who once lived in the cabin and how the property was passed down through generations, giving a real sense of Sedona's history. Admission is $10, though cultural passes are available through local libraries. It seems the admission fee helps keep the museum running, as there are several signs encouraging visitors to pay at the door. We spent about an hour exploring both the indoor and outdoor exhibits. There were many unique and fun things to see, including the iconic turquoise McDonald's signs, a Morse code learning area, and an old-fashioned apple peeler/corer. Outside, the views of the Sedona red rocks were beautiful, and there's a nice park nearby that's perfect for a short walk. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the gift shop had lots of cute items. A nice bonus was that there's no sales tax in the store. If you have the time and want to learn more about Sedona's history, this is a nice spot.

We spent about 1 hour, maybe a bit more here, exploring several buildings, each filled with Sedona area history. The main building houses a huge amount of local history in the form of plaques, dioramas, physical items, pictures, art and more. The barn houses an old horse draw buggy, a restored vintage Sedona fire truck, an entire apply processing plant and much more. The small, tan colored building seen closest to the entry point is a nearly 100 year old, fully restored movie set piece that was used as the telegraph office. The wireless set is in there along with a vast amount of movie posters, artifacts and details about the impact the filming of nearly 100 westerns had on Sedona. There's also some spectacular views of close rock formations from the property. There are a couple of well done bronze art pieces outside. One is of a Cowboy Storyteller telling stories to two children. Another bronze is of a couple, standing on a broken wagon wheel, holding a lantern and looking straight ahead. This one is by artist John Muir and tells a story. This museum was a real nice visit.

August 24, 2026 - Winslow, AZ…read more How can you pass up a chance to stand on the edge of one of the best-preserved large impact craters on Earth? If you're in the area, definitely stop. The crater is impressive, but the Discovery Center & Space Museum is worth the visit, too. It's packed with informative, interactive exhibits, plus a 4D movie that's definitely geared toward kids--but we enjoyed it anyway. There's also a movie about the mystery of the crater. We didn't have time to check out the dining area, but it looked like a great spot to relax and grab a bite or drink. Traveling with an RV? There's a parking lot for large RVs. They also have individual outdoor kennels for pets ($17 per pet). We were a little surprised by the entrance price at first, but after seeing everything included, we thought the $27 senior rate was very was actually pretty reasonable. Lots to see and do, and definitely worth the visit.

It is located just a short distance from Flagstaff and right off the interstate in Winslow, AZ. It was a random weekday when we came so there wasn't a huge crowd and parking was readily available. We also waited to get our tickets once we arrived. I subtract a point for the cost of general admission. It's pretty steep at about 29 dollars for an adult. This gets you access to I believe all of the attractions on site. Walking in, you immediately get to see the Holsinger Meteorite which doesn't look insanely big, but it weighs in at almost a ton. Most of the rest of the meteor dissipated upon impact. The impact created is what you came here to see, the meteor crater. It's definitely very cool to see something like this in person because the only other thing I've ever seen about meteor and craters were in books or movies. The crater is almost a mile wide and 750 deep. You gotta see it to believe it. They have multiple lookout points around the crater. Keep in mind, if you come in the summer like us, you're going to get the hot, dessert heart with not lots of shade. They have telescopes if you want to get a better look. There is also an indoor observation area in the Discovery Center. They also have guided tours if you want to walk to walk the rim of the crater. I believe there also also opportunities on certain days to hike the meteor floor. There are also things to see inside. They have the Blast Zone for interactive fun for the kids. There is a museum inside with all kinds of cool information about the meteor and space things. If you want to get off your feet for a little bit, they have a theater that plays a very informative film about the history of Meteor Crater. One of my favorite parts was the 4D theater. It was cheesy, but fun. Another cool thing they have here is an actual Apollo 11 space capsule used for training the likes of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin when they trained at the Meteor Crater. I love museums and things like this alot and will always stop when nearby. This will most likely be a one and done for me, but I highly suggest stopping by to see it atleast once in your life.

Like most folks I was focused on the overlooks and ignored this spot. After visiting I am kicking myself for being so shortsighted. This place is great. The museum is small yet very informative. It showcases the people who lived here and has several neat items on display. The things that I found so interesting were their dolls and figures made from twigs. Several were on display and they helped give you a picture into the lives of these people who lived here 800 years before. The ruins are similar to the pueblo style ruins throughout this region. They are less intact than some at the nearby Wupatki so do not expect large free standing pueblos. Despite that, it was pretty easy to walk around and get a feel for their living space. The most impressive point to me was the view of the nearby San Francisco peaks. That view must have been pretty terrifying when the volcano exploded. I hope you heed my advice and add this to your itinerary.

My good friend's father made this museum, and I was lucky to get a tour of it during the winter season. The museum was made by Mr. Richard Mike. He's a a prominent Navajo businessman. He owns several successful businesses on the Navajo Rez. The museum centers around Navajo culture, but there is also a section on Navajo Code Talkers. Richard Mike's father, King Mike was one of the 29 Navajo Code Talkers of World War II. During the warm King Mike mailed back and brought back many artifacts from the war, and many of these pieces are displayed at this museum (and at the Navajo Code Talkers Exhibit next door at the Burger King). This is is the largest collection of Navajo Code Talker memorabilia in the world. The Navajo Code Talkers played an important role in victory in the Pacific Campaign. It was truly a memorable experience to see this part of Native history. It's a source of pride for America and the Navajo Nation. Code Talker pieces are just a part of this museum. There are also sections devoted to Navajo art (such as their famous jewelry and rugs). There are also pieces devoted to the history of the Navajo Nation. The museum is housed in a shade house in the center of the 2.5 acre site. There are also several types of hogans, a sweathouse, food stand, and an area for arts & crafts. So if you're ever in Kayeta (the Gateway to Monument Valley), help support a Native-Owned business, and stay at the Hampton Inn or eat at the Burger King next door. And definitely stop by the Navajo Cultural Center and learn more about the people of the area.

The main attraction really is the mansion so just buy a $18 pass which gives you access to the mansion tour as well as the outside grounds (which is what the $5 pass gives you access to). As for as museum goes, the subject material isn't that interesting: it's about a random wealthy family. Imagine a 100 years into the future we have a museum about a random millionaire. Our tour guide, Marco, was fantastic and great at answering questions for our little group of 4. The mansion really is just a showcase of how a wealthy person's home from the early 1900's. You get a glimpse into their business and personal lives as well as the type of furniture employed in the household. The tour was interactive and nice. The self guided tour is just literally walking around the mansion so there isn't too much to see but it makes for a nice, short walk. Overall, I think that there are more interesting museums out there. But if you're looking for a super quiet museum to browse, this would be the place.
