The Chandler Route 66 Interpretive Center brings together one-of-a-kind Route 66 memorabilia from the 1930s to present day. This unique Mother Road museum is ever-changing with new art and films that transform your visit into an immersive experience.

Enjoy the museum's Mother Road video experience, an interactive and nostalgic trip down Route 66 detailing Oklahoma's integral role in forming America's Main Street throughout the decades. Take a "drive" down Route 66 from the 1920s to current-day Oklahoma. Experience the Dust Bowl years from the seat of a Model-A Ford, the 1940s and '50s from a 1948 Willeys Jeep, and the 1960s from authentic 1965 Mustang seats. The museum also houses vintage billboards and virtual hotel rooms with themes such as "Vanished Icons" and "Neon Nights."

The center is housed in the historic Chandler Armory, which has served many different purposes since its construction in 1937 as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal. From its completion through 1971, the armory served as a home for the Oklahoma National Guard. In 1998, a group called the Old Armory Restorers was formed and worked for nearly 10 years before the armory became the home of the Chandler Route 66 Interpretive Center.

Before you leave, be sure to browse through collections of brochure and travel information guides or check out the gift shop, which features local artists and American Indian craftsmen.
