Buffalo Bill Museum

The Buffalo Bill Museum in Cody, Wyoming, is one of five world-class museums that make up the Buffalo Bill Center of the West. Dedicated to the life and legacy of its namesake, William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody, the museum dives deep into western history and explores the myths, legends, and realities of the American frontier. Exhibits bring to life not only Cody himself but also the larger-than-life figures who defined the era, including Annie Oakley, Sitting Bull, Pawnee Bill, and many other colorful personalities tied to Buffalo Bill’s legendary Wild West Show. Visitors will find themselves immersed in stories of adventure, performance, and cultural exchange that shaped how the West was viewed both in America and abroad. From rare artifacts and photographs to multimedia displays, the museum offers a vivid look at how the Wild West captured imaginations and became woven into American identity.

If you’re traveling through the Yellowstone region and want to explore cowboy folklore, frontier history, and the roots of western pop culture, the Buffalo Bill Museum is an essential stop on your journey.
