Fantastic museum! Dont pass this up - very informative/interactive and learned all kinds of history! My favorite part was the jail in the basement
This was a great museum to learn about the mining and ski history of Park City. I appreciated how the exhibits had quick blurbs for fast reading and to keep you engaged. They had a lot of modern technology to highlight things and it works too. I also appreciated that there were stools and seats around the museum to take a break from walking.
Cool museum to see how Park City's mining history became a great skiing hub, jailing residents for complaining about work conditions and drinking beer. Great addition to any Park City visit.
I mainly focused on the store. But I got some cute stuff! A whole sachet of fun rocks and gems for $7.99. And this lovely magnet. This place had some really cool stuff, definitely worth a visit :)
We had a free day from skiing in Park City and visited this museum to learn about the history of the area. It is very organized and informative. It is fascinating to see the transformation of the area from a mining town to a ski resort. It is a small museum yet worth the visit if you have time.
