College Inn Bar

Reviewed By tomcatnicol - Casper, United States

We saw this bar, including the top floor when we were on a tour. Owner, Jacy was still excited about the renovations of this bar and top floor. She is finding new things and history on this place every day. This is the longest running business in Douglas, since 1887 I believe!! The massive woodwork, from 1906 is more like something from a Queen Anne mansion rather than a bar, it is worth the visit alone. If anyone has history on this bar I know Jacy is interested. The upstairs will take a lot of work but was so cool to see the old rooms. The stories about a past owner doing motorcycle burn outs on the beautiful, original tile floor was pretty amazing too!

Douglas Railroad Interpretive Museum At Locomotive Park

The Douglas Railroad Museum and Visitor Center is housed in a historic train depot built in 1886, prior to Wyoming becoming a state! The Depot is surrounded by eight rail cars including a day coach that dates back to the 1800s and a steam locomotive. Many of our rail cars are open to visitors, allowing guests to see the inside of the trains. During the Summer of 2018 the historic depot was updated to become a railroad museum. The exhibits include a growing collection of rail history and memorabilia. The building is also the source of information for the surrounding area whether you're looking for a place to stay, or a great meal.

A big feat for a small town to have this museum. Old railcars can be gone through (probably only seasonally, though) on the grounds. Indoors, you can delight at the toy moving railway, and you can learn all about the mascot of Douglas, the Jackalope!

Douglas WWII P.O.W. Camp

During WWII Camp Douglas was the primary prisoner of war (POW) camp for Wyoming. Visit the last remaining building of what was once a square mile, 180-building site; where 2,000 Italian, 3,000 German POWs, and 500 army personnel were accommodated. At the time, the camp was larger than the town of Douglas. Unique highlight: Western murals painted by Italian prisoners and historic photographs.
