Top 10 Budget-friendly Things to do in Tombstone, Arizona (AZ)

September 26, 2021 Enedina Augsburger

The very mention of Tombstone brings to mind images of the lawless Old West, gunfights at the O.K. Corral, epic feuds between the Earps and the Mclaurys and Clantons, Gold Rush fever and the promise of silver and gold. The heritage of the American West is still alive here today, where historic saloons, post offices and the famous Boot Hill cemetery stand restored and painstakingly preserved alongside more modern, tourist-focused recreations of period architecture.

We visited Tombstone for the usual cowboy/ghost town/mining history, but our favorite place in the whole town was the White Raven oddities shop. Don't get me wrong, everything else in Tombstone was cool, but we were blown away by White Raven. They have all sorts of interesting items for sale in all sorts of price ranges. Geodes, crystals, fossils, jewelry, artifacts, something for everyone. Besides the great items, it's worth it just to stop in to check out their free "Museum of the Strange". It is a truly fantastic collection of real creepy artifacts, old-school circus sideshow gaffs, scary stuff, funny stuff, bizarre stuff. Even if you are just passing through or driving anywhere near Tombstone, it's well worth your time to stop in and check out White Raven. PS-They also have an adorable little cabin/airbnb behind the shop if you are looking to stay in Tombstone. It's clean and comfy and a great price. The owners, Graham and Carolyn, are super friendly and helpful and pointed out some great attractions to check out in-town.

The Tombstone Courthouse State Historic Park in Tombstone, Arizona, preserves the original Cochise County courthouse that was built in 1882 and contains a museum featuring exhibits and thousands of artifacts relating to Tombstone's colorful and historic past. Located at 223 East Toughnut Street, the two-story red brick courthouse is an elegant example of the Territorial Victorian style of architecture and is laid out in the shape of a cross with double-hung eight-pane windows, slim chimneys, an iron spiral staircase, four square pillars on the front entrance porch and a one-story cupola or observation tower. The oldest courthouse still standing in Arizona, it once contained various county offices, including those of the sheriff, recorder, treasurer and the Board of Supervisors, as well as courtrooms and a jail. Outside, a replica gallows has been constructed in the courtyard to mark the spot where seen men were hanged for various crimes. The building served as the Cochise County courthouse until 1929 when the county seat was moved to Bisbee. The courthouse was designated as a state park in 1959 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.

Bird Cage Theatre

This one-time theater and brothel has been reincarnated as a museum.

Reviewed By Sparkyrickd

Daytime tour is pretty cool, a lot of neat historical artifacts that bring to life some of the westerns we watched as kids. The ghost tour is where its at though, from the paranormal experiences to the knowledgeable, friendly and fun ghost host Jade it is an experience anyone visiting tombstobe should have.
