Shoshone Museum

The Shoshone Museum houses a large collection of artifacts and documents that record the history of small mining community. It also serves as a showcase for the geology and natural history of the Amargosa and Death Valley region. With the establishment of environmental protections and increased eco-tourism to the region, the museum is central to the interpretation and preservation of these vital resources. Learn about the reestablishment and protection of two of the area’s endemic and endangered species, the Amargosa vole and Amargosa River pupfish.
