Western Hotel Museum

i've lived here for a decade, and JUST discovered how great this place is! Their collections of photos, maps, documents, and artifacts from the Antelope Valley's past (and the life of the building's former owner, Myrtle Webber) were so impressive! Each room in the building demonstrates a little bit about what life was like decades ago- from the flora & fauna, the natives that lived here, to the railroads and mining industries, and the local dairies of the early 20th century... this is a place you gotta visit if you want to learn-about and appreciate The AV's history. Plus the docents are so friendly, helpful, and answered my questions with their extensive knowledge. If you've visited places like the Whaley House in San Diego, or the Homestead Museum in La Puente, this is another historical home of SoCal you would love!

Really great place to learn the history of Lancaster and Antelope Valley which started in the 1890s. It is free for the public and open Fridays Saturdays and Sundays. This place was one of the first original buildings in Lancaster. So neat. Staff was very friendly and informative. Recommended if you would love to learn more about how Southern California started in the early days..

Great little museum. The oldest building in Lancaster. Had a genealogy library inside too!
