National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, Oklahoma City

This wonderfull Museum took me back to my childhood. I anticipate the day when I can return and repeat the experience with my family and Grand children. and spend more time there and other Museums in the great State of Oklahoma. I loved the details on each and every display. The parking was great for trucks ( I am a Truck Driver. I did have to leave my trailer at a truckstop lets get real guys ) What did I dislike about the place??? "I HAD TO LEAVE!"

This place was great it was recommended by the gentleman at the dalton gang hideout in meade. The art exhibit was great and educational. Plus there is everything a cowboy could ever want to see. From John Wayne to Frost Lane. There is everything that has to do with horses and the art of. The saddle exhibit was equally great. The reconstructed mining/cow town was great. Definatly must see.

This museum was one of the best parts of my trip to OKC. The docents and staff were phenomenal in their friendly attitude, knowledge of the collection and made for an exceptional experience. The collection of gloves alone are worth the price of admission but there's enough to see in the museum that two days are really needed to take in the works in their entirely. Then, when you're finished with the museum, head West down the street to county line BBQ for lunch or dinner. This will round up your visit with some authentic OKC BBQ where you can reflect and discuss the museum over a delicious meal.

Free Admission on wendsdays untill Nov 7. Samuel Colt private collection is on display, a must see for gun collectors. Wheel chairs available. Much family fun.

I came here in 2003 i had a wonderful time browsing through the history of Oklahoma and just the old west in general. If your looking for a place of interest and history please add this to your list of must dos you wont regret it i promise. great for all ages.

My wife and grandson accompanied me on a trip to Oklahoma City three weeks ago. The National Cowboy and Heritage Museum was outstanding. The museum presented the West in a dynamic, but yet sutle manner. The impact of seeing James Earle Fraser's "End of the Trail" was overwhelming to say the least. My wife was spell bound with Lincoln and the Canyon Princess. My grandson (15) really absorbed the paintings and cowboy tack. He was impressed to see Remington and Russell paintings in the museum. He also really enjoyed the Barbed Wire collection. To understand the West, the museum is a must for any family. It certainly a first class act of outstanding displays on the West.
