Historic Trail Town is a collection of buildings and relics of the Wyoming frontier. Local archaeologist Bob Edgar created Trail Town by moving 26 buildings built between 1879 and 1901 to the location that was once the site of Old Cody City. Walk the boardwalks of these fascinating buildings for a step back in time. Among the buildings are an old saloon, livery barn, blacksmith shop, general stores, post office and schools. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid's "Hole-in-the-Wall" cabin is also located there. See over 100 horse drawn vehicles and the original wagon trail.
The "Museum of the Old West" houses historic Plains Indians materials, guns of the frontier, carriages, clothing and many other relics of the past. Jeremiah " Liver-Eating" Johnson, the mountain man, is buried in the cemetery along with several other notorious Western characters.
Visit the Museum of the Old West and Old Trail Town mid-May through September.
