The Rex Allen Museum is located in one of Willcox's oldest commercial buildings. Constructed in the early 1890's of adobe, it was purchased in 1897 by Josef Schwertner and operated as the Schley Saloon from 1897-1919. The front of the Museum has been restored to resemble the original saloon storefront.

To operate a museum through which the cultural preservation, public education and history of the ranching heritage and integrity of Willcox, the Sulphur Springs Valley area and the Southwest will be perpetuated.
