  • I had planned to drop in to the Nelson Museum as part of my Cheyenne itinerary. The size of the facility & the number of artefacts on display were unexpected. I was really impressed. This is a must-see if you're travelling through Cheyenne. I hope to give more support to this institution in the future.
  • So cool and only 5 dollars to get in. A great exhibit of firearms and arrow heads and spurs and taxidermy..I could go on and on..Is a 3 story building but does have a elevator.
