In Oklahoma today, visitors can explore where the collective histories of 39 unique First American Nations come to life. The First Americans Museum is a celebration of cultural diversity, history, and contributions of the indigenous people who inhabited this land long before the United States came into existence. It's important to acknowledge and honor the First American Nations that called this land home, including the Apache, Caddo, Tonkawa, Wichita, Comanche, Kiowa, Osage, Quapaw, Muscogee, and Seminole. These nations have a historical relationship with this region and have contributed to the rich tapestry of Oklahoma's cultural heritage.
Spend an afternoon at the Oklahoma Railway Museum enjoying the displays of freight cars, passenger cars, and a real steam engine. In addition to the trains, you can check out other railroad equipment, including motor cars, locomotives, and more. Plus, there's a display car filled with permanent exhibits of railroad memorabilia. But what sets the Oklahoma Railway Museum apart is the chance to see history in motion. You can ride on the trains that helped shape America's transportation industry and feel like you're stepping back in time if you visit on the first and third Saturdays from April to August. And the best part? Admission to the museum is entirely free.
