What can I see and do at the Victor Heritage Museum?

Midway between Hamilton and Stevensville on Highway 93 is the nondescript little town of Victor. You might drive by without a second glance, but as is the case with most small towns in America, there's always a hidden gem that had you known it existed, would certainly entice you to slow down and make a U turn.

On Main Street stands the old Victor Depot Building, a quaint log building that houses the Victor Heritage Museum. It remains open in summer from Memorial Day to Labor Day, from 1.00 – 4.00 p.m., Wednesday to Saturday. There's parking available, as well as restrooms. In addition to the Museum they have a gift shop where you may find souvenirs.

The Museum is a veritable delight that has invaluable antiques, historical artifacts, native Indian relics, and objects that hark back to a mining and agricultural history of a hundred years ago. Information on little known aspects of frontier life, early religion, churches and schools, which you may not come across in most places, is here for you to sift through. Wherever it is that your interests lie, you are sure to come out a little more enlightened than when you went in.
