Explore the rich history of a town along the Chisholm Trial at the Yukon Historical Museum. Largely influenced by Czech culture and also the hometown of famous country music star Garth Brooks, much of the past of Yukon is on display at this museum with artifacts dating back to the late 1800s. It is housed in an original school building constructed in 1910 and has three floors. It contains early day items, a Czech history room, and displays about "Yukon's Best" flour mill history. There is also a replica of a doctor's office and schoolroom from the early 1900s.
