Jackson Hole Historical Society & Museum

Wonderful educational experience in Jackson! Staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the area. There was a wonderful traveling exhibit of the woman from Jackson Hole including the woman's basketball team from 1910. I would recommend stopping by when in the area.

Newly built history museum - wonderful exhibits, informative and interesting content on the history of Jackson Hole and the Tetons. All in a beautifully designed space. Rotating exhibit space, classroom, and terrace for events upstairs. Lovely gift/book shop at the front. All within walking distance of the square and lunch options. A must-see for tourists and locals alike.

Absolutely loved spending some time here. We learned so much from the permanent exhibits, especially this wall of artifacts where you could learn about the community through each artifacts story. Also adored the cowboy trade exhibit upstairs. I learned SO much about the craft involved in western wear. No kids with us, but the kids room looked really well done. Bought a few things at the gift shop, which had a great selection for such a small footprint. Really recommend stopping in here!

Small but very interesting. Mini movies tell a lot of stories and history of the area and the people that helped to settle the area including indigenous people. A bit about the Rockefeller family. Two cabins to look at. What films were made and cast too. Not bad for the price.

We didn't actually visit the inside of the museum but, we had the chance to stumble into an event they organized on memorial weekend. The non profit called Wagon & Tales had a bunch of stands where you could learn and experience how the pioneers lived in the 1840s. It was awesome.
