The Montana Western Legacy Center in Whitehall,  offers a unique visitor experience that celebrates the dynamic diversity of the Treasure State. From interactive ‘hands on’ exhibits & special events to a rich array of local products (now available for purchase in the Montana Western Legacy Center's very own unique gift shop), the amazing story of America’s last & best place is on full display, all day, every day.

​

Historical themes include railroads, mining, mountain men, showcasing the state’s legendary cowboy, cowgirl, and rodeo culture, and multi-dimensional Native American culture. More than a comprehensive visitor’s center, the Center is an interactive experience with unique hands-on displays and exhibits envisioned to employ state-of-the-art technology that appeals to all ages. These are envisioned to include:

​

• A mining exhibition with a ‘pan for gold’ opportunity and dig kits that showcase the rich environment of the State.

• Animated displays focused on Native American culture and Montana’s storied place in the evolution of the West. 

• Native American showcase that displays the rich culture of various tribes as well as providing information on current issues in the Native American communities. 

​

An exciting calendar of events is being programmed in partnership with community organizations. These include the up-scaling of current attractions like Frontier Days and the Christmas Stroll. New events in development include Plan a Rendezvous Day, Mining Day and Horse Whisperer event.
