Route 66 Historical Village, Transportation museum in Tulsa, United States

The Route 66 Historical Village features a restored Frisco 4500 Steam Engine, vintage rail cars, and a 154-foot oil derrick at Southwest Boulevard.

The discovery of oil in 1901 at the Sue Bland No. 1 oil lease initiated the transformation of Tulsa into a major petroleum industry center.

The visitor center, designed as a 1920s Phillips 66 gas station, represents the architectural elements and designs from early automotive travel periods.

Located at 3770 Southwest Boulevard in Tulsa, the open-air museum provides free admission and remains accessible during daylight hours throughout the year.

The museum displays North America's tallest oil derrick, marking the location of Tulsa County's first productive petroleum well from the early 1900s.
