Decatur County Last Indian Raid Museum
Transports you back to a Different Time

From the Indian Raid of 1878 and other battles and skirmishes, to Buffalo Hunters, homesteaders, connections to people like Wild Bill (James Butler) Hickok, the Great Western Cattle Trail, the Museum is dedicated to preserving history. 


The museum has fifteen structures with thirteen authentic buildings dating from 1885-1952.  Our historic Sod House was built on site in 1958 and the other authentic buildings were relocated to the museum grounds from surrounding locations in Decatur County to create a village setting.

 

Enjoy self-guided tours by using our tour map and QR Codes on the buildings and many of the displays. These will give you general and more detailed information.
