While traveling Shoshone-Bannock tribal lands in Idaho, the Shoshone-Bannock Tribal Museum is a must-see. Visitors can immerse themselves in the culture and history of this unique Tribe.
The Shoshone-Bannock Tribal Museum showcases many ancient artifacts from Old Fort Hall, along with distinctive beadwork created by Shoshone-Bannock tribal artists. The Benedicte Wrensted photo collection features images taken from 1912 through 1985, depicting this Tribe’s unique way of life. In the summer months, the Tribe’s buffalo herd can often be viewed outside the museum. The museum also has a gift shop with a variety of maps, a good selection of books and locally made jewelry.
