5/14/23 Great history lesson of the short lived Pony Express started in St. Joseph, Mo. This is an excellent museum to bring groups too. So much to see along with interaction stations. It is a self guided tour with a 16 minute informative movie. I was there 2 hrs and could have slowed down for a bit longer.

The Pony Express National Museum is a hidden treasure that brings one of the most legendary chapters of American history to life. From the moment you step inside, you're transported back to 1860, when brave young riders risked everything to deliver the mail across the frontier.

★★★★★ Harvey, May 2025

The Pony Express National Museum is a really fine collection of memorabilia from the brief life of the Pony Express and inside the original building where it was operated. This is a great collection and the museum is run by knowledgeable and helpful people.

★★★★★ Louis, Jan 2025

This museum was a very cool stop on our road trip through Middle America. It was awesome that the museum is in the same building as the original Pony Express stables. The exhibits were well done and very interesting. I especially liked the covered wagon, working pump/well, bios of the riders and maps.
