Overview Service & Activities

About The Heritage Museum’s exhibits illustrate the history of the area and its people. The Kootenai Indians, miners, lumbermen, fur traders, and all our pioneers are depicted faithfully. Animals on display: a silver-tipped grizzly, a blonde-black bear, 2 kinds of eagles, a gray wolf and many more. The main building is a unique 12-sided log building and a 3-story matching cupola built by volunteers. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Along with the thousands of local artifacts, the 12+ acre grounds have more historic buildings and outdoor exhibits that are open year-round. We also have a 1906 Shay Locomotive housed in its original “Shay Shed.” The Shay is currently in the process of being restored to working order.
