Museum of the Beartooths

The Museum of the Beartooths in Columbus reflects Stillwater County's corner of Montana history. The main building, newly constructed as a museum in 1991, briefly outlines local history back to the 1870's. Exhibits include historic washing machines, artif acts relaxing to the second Crow Agency (1875-1882), the Albert Johnson vintage home furniture, 1895 Line Drug Company pharmaceuticals, and a tribute to Donald J Ruhl, one of Montana's seven Medal of Honor winners who died at Iwo Jima. A quaint museum gift shop intrigues visitors with a variety of Made in Montana crafts as well as books and memorabilia.

Season of operation is May to September.
