The museum looks like a small cabin on the Rims' edge, but don't judge a book by its cover! It sits atop a large lower level, housing a full sized chuck wagon, a sheep herder wagon, spellbinding collections of Northern Plains Native Tribes artifacts, historical firearms, and more! New in 2015 was an exhibit about Clark and the Corps of Discovery on the Yellowstone.

The Landmarks Gallery Feature Exhibit - A Rip-Roaring Good Time - explores the rowdy early days of Billings with stories of gambling, alcohol, theft, murder, and more.

Featuring a breathtaking view of Billings and the surrounding landscape, our large, covered deck is available to rent for private gatherings. Please contact the museum for current rates and to make a reservation.

Yellowstone County Museum is a non-profit organization that offers free admission. Your donations are greatly appreciated.

This was the cutest find. It is located at the Billings airport so don't be concerned about the directions. It is so much bigger than it looks from the outside. We watched videos and walked around...

A gem of historical regional facts. Also should be noted for giving Native Americans of the region their due historical mention. You should reserve a couple of hours since as small as it is there is lots to see. Good view on a clear day from their balcony.

Works were very nice. The only downside is,I walk with a walker. There is a downstairs,there is no elevator,or lift,to help handicap people downstairs. They say they are working on getting an elevator/lift. But if you can make it downstairs,I say go for it. There is alot to learn.
