Great museum that’s kind of nondescript from the outside. You’ll see the two large balls of barbed wire.Once inside it has multiple large rooms that are super carefully curated. There’s a nice woman that takes care of the museum and keep it super tidy.They’ve everything from the history of the south west, to the uses of Barbed wire, how it was made, all the variations, and a room that’s a route 66 museum. There is art made with Barbed wire, all carefully displayed and very informative. This was one of the highlights of our route 66 trip.It’s free but they take donations which will gladly left.

I went to the museum opening weekend because my mother lived there. It was interesting. I'm a hairstylist and they had a lot of antique styling and perming tools which I found fascinating!Tracie Belling

Amazing place! Did not expect this much history in a "barbed wire" museum! Very nicely displayed and awesome people working there! I will for sure go there again!

Never been here, but I'm leaving this on behalf of Dalton Wilcox and Mutt Taylor, who informed me of its existence! Hopefully you can once again claim the title of the largest collection of barbed wire in the nation!

Great museum that shares the history of barbed wire as well as the influences of the physical barrier and economic impact on people of this simple and wide spread invention.

Very interesting to say the least. The man giving the tour was such a sweet old soul. I'd love to go back if it wasnt so far away.

Worth the effort. You have no idea about how barbed wire changed the west until you come and visit. The staff was the real draw.
