Old West Miniature Village and Museum

Old West Miniature Village and Museum is located at 140 west Yellowstone Avenue in Cody, Wyoming. Tecumseh's museum is where the old west still lives. A number of the pieces recreate important buildings, sites, and people to the west and Wyoming's history. Thousands of figures are shown on the miniature village with history dating from the 1600s to the 1890s. One area of the miniature shows the Cody Rodeo Grounds and Old Trail Town. There are tiny buffalo suspended in mid fall over a cliff, as well as men fighting at Green River Rendevous. A stockade trading post is also part of the miniature, as well as Chief Joseph and other Sioux warriors.

Besides the miniature village there are other artifacts from Native American cultures and the Old West. The museum is open daily from 8am to 8pm from May to September. The winter season will vary in hours, though it is open. At the museum is Tecumseh's Frontier Trading Post with souvenirs. Clothing and movies can be purchased such as Tombstone and Son of the Morning Star. The displays of Native American artifacts date from 1200 AD to the 1920s providing a long history of early inhabitants.
