A must see when you are in Tombstone! Ladies there give a very detailed history introduction before you go into the museum . Inside everything is original the way it was left when it closed on 1889!

LOVED this place, one of the best museums I’ve seen. They have done a really good balance between restoration and just keeping things as they were in situ. Worth the $12 to get in!

The historic Bird Cage Theatre is one of our favorite attractions in Tombstone. Once you walk through its doors, you are instantly taken back to 1881, the year it first opened. SEE FULL REVIEW HERE Read more
