"My daughter and I toured this museum yesterday and were very impressed. It consists of several buildings full of collections and the best part is the outside of the main area, where there are historical buildings along a very nice walkway, consisting of a blacksmith, general store, schoolhouse, ch..."urch, service station, print shop, barns, and an historical house. All of these buildings are set up in the time period they come from and are complete with much information. We will definitely be going back. The $3 admission is more than fair and the grounds were clean and well-kept.

"The museum name is somewhat misleading as it does not have too much to do with the Overland Trail. It is an excellent museum of Sterling and the area. The young woman manning the front desk was very friendly, giving us a short intro to the museum. It was constructed by the WPA in the '30's. Outs..."ide of the main building, there are 12 different buildings - blacksmith shop, barn, and so on. I especially liked the display of branding irons.
Unlike many small museums, the displays are well done and are not just a bunch of items stuck in a building.
Well worth the small admission fee. The only negative is that here were not signs in town to guide you to the museum.
