Free museum! On the small side but well organized. We spent about an hour here, reading everything and taking free souvenir pictures in front of the stagecoach email them to yourself and printing our faces on money they print behind the front desk. Exhibits include the gold rush and the value of gold, life on a stagecoach, criminals stagecoach robbery, banking, and art. They also have a small selection of souvenirs for reasonable prices, such as a decent sized piece of pyrite for $1. While we were there, a very large school group of 4-6 year olds came in and the only staff member on duty was very overwhelmed but handled it with grace. She was kind and patient and I was very impressed! Clean museum, including the restrooms. Parking was a little tricky street parking or a pay lot, but this museum is worth the trip downtown!!
Very cool western memorabilia on display. This is a great place to bring young and old alike. There are interactive displays. You can even try your hand at sitting in a stagecoach and grabbing the reins. I’m going back again when family comes for a visit.
This was my first visit to the museum. They have amazing artifacts and lots of information about the history of the Wells Fargo Company. The real stagecoach at the front is a great way to see what they looked like. They do have some interactive areas which adults would like. There is an Art Gallery to the back of the building displaying some very beautiful pieces. The only disappointing part was that I couldn't take photos of the historic area. The employee was absolutely wonderful so I definitely will be back! I did take about an hour and a half to go through it!
I don't care much about old west stuff in general... but I went with a friend on a whim anyways. I was BLOWN AWAY at the fact that they had so many original paintings by NC Wyeth there one of the BEST illustrators of all time in my opinion! I'm so glad I went. It's a hidden little gem there!
Very nice small history museum. It's free. Top-notch displays. Several fun, interactive exhibits for kids. A small but classy art display. Well worth a visit. 30 minutes will usually do. Pro tip: Parking can be tough. Try to park at the near-by Phoenix Police Museum. There are several free spaces there. See the Police Museum 20 minutes, then walk over and see the Wells Fargo Museum
Really nice museum experience! Highly recommend for adults or families. Plan to spend at least an hour or more if you like to get a full experience.
This place is a gem, it was so much fun. The interactive displays made this walk through history an experience to remember I highly recommend visiting
When I went there the tour guide was very informative, there were also free souvenirs there. It is a good trip if you'd want to learn the history of Wells Fargo.
Wonderful place to go at night with your special someone to walk around and enhoy the night
Interesting stories, fun facts, a well designed, friendly museum.
