5 star, 4yrs ago: “Lots to look at and it’s all free. They do have a little souvenir shop and they had really cheap prices compared to other places we saw. Lots of hands on exhibits, good place to check out some history”
5 star, 10mo ago: “I would never have known there was enough history about Barbed Wire to make a museum for it. It also has a Route 66 historical section and a section about the 1900s dust bowl. This place was fascinating and the attendant was super friendly and helpful.”
5 star, 3mo ago: “Excellent roadside attraction. Definitely the best collection of barbed wire I’ve ever seen. And lots more. I give it two thumbs up!!”
