Reviews
This is a small and charming museum that gave us a precursor to our next stop Little Bighorn battlefield. The knowledgeable and friendly museum staff was greatly appreciated. The museum has many Custer artifacts/exhibits and information that helps define the circumstances of the battle and the man. There are also Indian exhibits that are impressive and authentic. The museum staff were exemplary...they were helpful and available for any question. An excellent video is available to view regarding Custer's Last Stand that was tremendously helpful in understanding the story and logistics of the battle. The museum is clean and well organized. Adjacent to the museum there is a souvenir shop with a variety of items to purchase that include typical tourist items, but also unique and some valuable items. If you are hungry, a great little eatery is available that serves delicious food next to the shop. If you are in the area it is a must stop to visit.
