Reviews
"The curator has an amazing knowledge of the area and shares so many interesting facts and stories. The building seemed endless, with its many rooms and halls of displays. Well worth the price."
"It's not handicapped accessible because it's an old building built in 1874 they are trying to raise funds to fix the elevator they can let you in but I don't think a wheelchair to pass down any of the isles"
"Everyone should visit this place. Learn a little history. Amazing items to view."
"If you genuinely love antiques and history this is the place for you!! For only 7$ this museum is completely worth it. The name of the museum is a little misleading because they have much more than just oil and gas history here. There are 3 floors absolutely jam packed with antiques and cool things to look at. I really liked the marble room and the basement full of parts and pieces."
"Great museum. Kind people working there who know the history. Building is definitely bigger on the inside! Had a lot of cool items and history within those walls."
