Ward Charcoal Ovens State Historic Park

Museum on former site of Ward, a small mining town.

Reviewed By SueR965 - Las Vegas, United States

The Ward Charcoal Ovens was on my Nevada bucket list. Exploring them lived up to my expectations. The history of these well built structures is fascinating. One tip:when heading south on route 50, take the second turn (look for the official park sign) to drive 7 miles on a dirt road to the site. What a cool place to visit!

Located on the site of what was once Eureka's local newspaper headquarters, the County Historical Society Museum preserves the old printing presses and also serves as the town's visitor information center.

Churchill County Museum & Archives

Reviewed By TahoeFamily - South Lake Tahoe, United States

Lots to see in this very large small-town museum. Truly - it is one of our favorite places to visit, and the displays are well prepared and interesting. Love this place.

White Pine Public Museum

Reviewed By mariellad121 - Las Vegas, United States

This place is bigger than it looks from the outside. One of the featured artifacts on display is an Ice Age short-faced bear skeleton that was found in White Pine County, but the museum also exhibits artifacts from more recent history of White Pine County, which has a long history of mining.

5. Austin Historical Museum
