Free. I don’t know how anyone can complain about a free museum that has so many exhibits, and items on loan from other museums as well.The parking was more than adequate for my own very large vehicle and even a couple pulling a 30’ trailer. Lot was clean, had a little garden, trails, blooming flowers, little birds nesting and all sorts of fun to be had.The exhibits range from inclosed glass cases to full on shelters ranging from the lithic period to more modern adobe examples used used by indigenous peoples right up to today. Lots of their baskets, beads, tools, weapons, art, etc.Bathrooms are super clean to an impressive level.Staff is very helpful and friendly.While it’s free, donations are excepted, although, there not gonna state at you until you give lol, their way to laidback for such things.Very cool place, traditional music in the background, I have lots of photos, but go see it, better experienced in real life than on a screen kinda thing. Bring someone with you.

Admission is free and the museum has nice static displays with a wealth of historical information and artifacts. From the exterior the building appears small and unassuming but I recommend stopping by and visit. Even before you enter the building you the grounds are well maintained with regional plant life and interesting walking trails.

This is a very nice small museum. Excellently done exhibits. They have a large amount of pottery from an extended time period. The dioramas are very informativeand seem well done. There is a path around the building and out into surrounding area. I did not take it as it was very hot. Not sure what it consisted of.

Small museum, but very informative for the El Paso area. This museum focuses on the indigenous people that lived in the surrounding area from the end of the ice age, through to the Spanish settlers.I give it five stars for effort, their dioramas, and the hiking trails.

Small but likeable. Located conveniently if you are going out of town over the mountain. A good introduction to area ancient history. God price too... Free!

Awesome! They need better advertising. There is so much to see and do in here. The adventure starts outside with walking trails and samples of the plants in the area. It is more exciting than I can describe... watch the Googlemaps videos. It is ADA compliant so you can bring your grandparents and your grandchildren. Go early so you can see all of the exhibits... there are many examples of Native American culture also.

Astounding place. Displays are excellent. Explanations are fantastic. Pottery is wonderful. They have a one hour movie that was fantastic. Staff was at a meeting so Mary the security guard helped us, started the movie and let us buy hats when the store was closed. She was super helpful. The state of Texas has built a freeway absolutely blocking the entrance to this museum with no way to enter or exit if you are coming to El Paso or trying to go north when you exit. Inexcusable to not provide an ingress and egress.

Small but a good springboard to other points in and around the El Paso area.
