Phone: 505-538-5921If you were to look for the Silver City Museum expecting to find a square institutional building with a blank facade, you would be disappointed. If, however, you find yourself at a picket fence staring up at a charming red brick Victorian house with a three-story cupola, then you will have discovered the Silver City Museum.
Comments from the museum Visitor Log range from "Fantastic!!", "Excellent!", and "Very Interesting!", to "This is among the finest house museums I have visited. All is so well preserved, and paints a great picture of what the town was like in its heyday."
