More information on State Museum of History

Located on the grounds of the State Capitol, this museum takes visitors on a journey through Oklahoma's exciting history. Many know the mythic story of the Land Run of 1889, but the exhibits here go back even further—you will see Oklahoma from the time of the dinosaurs on. The most popular displays teach about Native American culture and the Oklahoma oil boom years. Also, take time to visit the Veteran's Memorial on the premises. This is a great educational experience for children and adults. Best of all, admission is free.
