The Keno Mining Museum is said to be one of the best
little museums in the Territory with informative and well made displays.
The Museum captures the Gold and Silver mining history in the area which
began in the early 1900's.
Displays include tools and equipment used in the early
days of mining as well as artifacts associated with everyday life in isolated
mining communities.
A wide selection of photographs allows visitors to see
the history of the region through the eyes of some very talented
photographers who lived and worked in the Keno area.
Part of the museum is housed in an old dance hall built
in the 1920's, (originally "Jackson Hall", picture above)
