Gila County Historical Museum - Globe, Arizona

Very interesting mine town and even buying book about Globe to further read history. Sorry the woman who was showing us around too talkative and kept us moving. I came to enjoy not just listen to what she was interested in. If I wanted questions then it would have been better. Donation was a great way to ask. instead of admission.

Very small museum and the organization of it was lacking.
Some of the items on display were worth seeing if you have the time to spare.

Excellent museum that far exceeded my expectations. I was expecting it to be ho hum, but I spent almost an hour there, and I could have spent more if I wanted to further read everything.

Once you come in, the room in the middle has an actual vintage phone, and the docent was so kind to show it to me. There was also some an old wagon along with some other old phones. To the right, there was an exhibit room on life back then and further ahead- a model stable to showcase Western times... and finally at the end - a model historical bedroom. Loved the presentation and it really felt immersive.

Walking back to the middle room, you pass by a small side section on Native American pottery and lifestyle. Then, as you proceed to the left side of the building, there were several small rooms. Within them, I got to see old clothing, other vintage items, mine rescue equipment, etc. There was just so much to see and digest. Wow, I'm blown away! More people should definitely visit this museum!

This is a great little museum. If you are in the Globe/Miami area, stop by to see some excellent displays and learn some history of Native Americans, early settlers, mining and ranching. I think it's only open Wed to Saturday for four hours in the middle of the day, so check their schedule before visiting.

It's small. But it's free. Has some nice old items and a bit of history.
