The Adams Museum in Deadwood is the oldest history museum in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Pioneer businessman W.E. Adams built the museum in 1930 as a memorial to his family and to honor the early pioneers that settled the Black Hills. Architecturally impressive inside and out, The Adams Museum houses three floors of fascinating and educational artifacts, including: the first locomotive in the Black Hills; memorabilia associated with Wild Bill Hickok, Calamity Jane, Seth Bullock, Poker Alice, and Potato Creek Johnny; rare fossils of a plesiosaur, an aquatic reptile that lived more than 95 million years ago; a collection of Native American artifacts; turn-of-the-century artifacts from Deadwoods Chinese Community; fine collections of historical photographs, minerals, guns, and folk art.
