Los Alamos Historical Museum

The Los Alamos Historical Museum contains exhibits about regional development, scientific research, and the Manhattan Project within the oldest building in town.

Originally constructed as an infirmary in 1918, the building served as a guest cottage for Los Alamos Ranch School before becoming General Groves' residence during World War II.

The museum exhibits document the progression from Ancestral Pueblo settlements through the Ranch School period to the establishment of the national laboratory.

Visitors can explore the museum Monday through Saturday, with guided walking tours available at specific times and admission costing five dollars per person.

The facility maintains exhibits about nuclear science development while occupying the structure that housed key Manhattan Project leaders during their stays.
