The Nelson Museum was designed and built by founder Robert L. Nelson to help preserve the western culture and "cowboy code" that he lived in his Wyoming youth.The collection itself was designed by our Founder Robert L. Nelson to show visitors a broad spectrum of our older western cultures. Cowboy, Charro, Art, Native American and Military aspects of the west were carefully studied and needed artifacts put on a list for acquisition. Many Collections are very deep. Our collection is very wide.Each spur, saddle, firearm and artifact was added to the collection for a purpose. Each was added to make the story more complete.
