Murray Ball

Ok...here’s a very strange Route 66 attraction - the Devil’s Rope Museum, which pays tribute to barbed wire! This place is quite amazing...who knew there were so many different types of razor wire?

Selene rodriguez

Really cool to walk through but it got really hot in there at times which made it a little difficult to enjoy.

Deborah Campbell

Great to visit

Margaret Rickards

Amazing display takes you back in time. Good display of photos of the dust bowl.

Laramie Jernigan

Visited this place with a friend who found old barbwire in an old barn. Very friendly lady at the front desk helped us find what kind of wire she had. I was suprised to see the large about of resources at this small town museum. A must stop for those traveling through on RT. 66!! Free admission!

Cool Route 66 Museum. Definitely worth a visit if you're driving through the area and are interested in the history of Route 66 and the local surrounding area. There's some cool stuff to look at.

chester beebe

It's an out of the way, unusual,quirky little museum. I enjoyed my visit and the 200 pictures I took.

Jeanne Strackbein

Wow! Quite a collection of ranching / tool memorabilia and more. We spent a couple of hours (and could have spent more if time had permitted) browsing the well-organized, informative exhibits. Highly recommended!

Dave Seery

Very interesting really nice lady.

Emily Owens

Loved this place. I didnt expect it to be as cool as it was. But it was seriously very neat. Had 3 seperate museums. 1 was really little about the great depression but still very informative. The other museums were a Barbed wired and a route 66 Museum. They had a lot of information at each of them. And ALL OF IT WAS FREE!!!

bacon pope

Way too much to fully take in. Displays an incredible dedication by all involved. Wonderful place to stop, but choose a cool day.

John Zweifler

Worth the stop

Dave Stuckey

Very informative and interesting to see! Well worth the time!

Gary Thurston

Very interesting place. Small but nice. Nice people here.

D Or A McLean

Was not expecting to enjoy the museum as much as I did. Much more than a bunch of pieces of wire . The sculptures are amazing and took real skill.

J Heather McCallum

Initially stopped for the route 66 museum portion. Thought that barbed wire was a quirky thing for a museum. I was AMAZED at the information and the overall exhibit!! I highly recommend a visit, believe it or knot(pun intended

David Word

Closes early

David Amaya

Very interesting on Route 66

Shawn McGee

FREE! More people should stop by so they know to keep the place open. Lots more to see than we expected.

William Smith

This place is a National Treasure. It's free but more importantly it is a treasure trove of information and entertaining displays. Bring the kids. And please, put a dollar or two in the donation jar, you won't be sorry. LOVED IT!!!!

Vik D.

Very interesting Worth a stop on Route 66 The girl that works there was very informative It's donation based

Jay Weaver

I learned a lot about barbed wire and the history of the dust bowl. This is worth your time to visit when on Route 66.

Angelo F.

If you're going to do Route 66 then you need to stop and see this when you stop to see the other Museum in the same town. Would recommend going in the morning as they do not have air conditioning but the history on barbed wire is all there. The two museums in this town run on donations be sure just put three to five bucks toward the continuation of keeping the history alive

Kathy Lee

Fantastic museum.

DOGGIE STYLE KENNELS CHARLOTTE NC

So I did read the reviews of how they were closed until March. Well it is may after 9am here and the place is still not open. Not sure if they look at when their peak season is for business to open it or maybe they feel not too many people come early. If that is the case then they need to update the hours online if they will be open later on during the day. I would have love to get information/insight on this place.

Laura Sands

Very interesting. This place needs our support. Route 66 is our history and without us it will just fade away.

Cheryl Biggs

Great place

SAIFULLAH SIAL

I didn't even know there was such a thing as a barbed wire museum! But i liked it! Who would have thought there where so many kinds of barbed wire! Wow

June Huffman

Very interesting

Elizabeth Carden

Who knew a barbed wire museum would be so entertaining but this place did not disappoint. Lots of information and the sweetest lady answering question. Clean bathrooms and a nice place to stretch your legs on a long drive. Worth the stop.

Béatrice Rossat

(Translated by Google) Make a detour you will be well received and very nice museum (Original) Faites un détour vous serez bien accueilli et très beau musée

Neat little museum. Great history of barb wire.

Nora Wuest

Nice place to spend a few minutes. Small town museum.

Marchand Ming

Great historical museum.

Graham W

Been here 4 times. Once, unfortunately, they were closed - our fault as we arrived at about 2:00AM and slept in the parking lot. Last time I saw it was 4 years ago. It was a sad time as we were riding out motorcycles along I-40 and everyone was too intent on motoring than stopping here. I looked to the left while riding and swore I could see the building. But the times that I have actually been inside were outstanding. Great souvenirs of Route 66. Great selection of books. It's the only place where I have seen the book for sale, "Route 66 - The Mother Road."

Ron Hornsby

If you're interested in barbed wire, it's very informative, but only a little bit of information about Rt. 66

Jesus Frias

Cool stuff to look at

patrick lusher

Fun little pitstop on 66

amylia black

This was a little hidden gem on our vacation! Our two teens enjoyed it too! Great little souvenir shop!

Sean Mckenzie

steve walser

Where Else are you going to find a museum dedicated to Barbed Wire?

Arthur Rosenberg

There is more to see then just barbed wire. Very interesting and they stayed open a little late since we arrived minutes before closing.

Carson Groezinger

Excellent museum considering it is free

Granpaw Dave

Very interesting place

Robin Richardson

Very interesting very old retro cool things in this building

Craig Lenhard - rvrguyd

Everything you need to know about barbed wire is here and it's free. A must see for cow hands and city slickers.

Reginald Clough

My wife wanted to go here and I was skeptical. Wish I had arrived earlier in the day because I would have stayed longer but they were closing.

Phill Payne

Have to go

Jim Mcglynn

We got there late PM but it had already closed which was annoying as I wanted to see what McGlynn barbed wire looked like and to whom it got its name from. So please try and stay open till 5pm as some of us travel very far to get here.

Debby Payne

Disappointed it was closed on a weekday.

VAREILLES Family

Le musée Devil's Rope Museum se trouve à l'angle de la First Street et de la Kingsley St, plus précisément au 100 Kingsley St. Vous ne pouvez pas le manquer car ce musée possède devant son entrée deux énormes boules de fils barbelés de 180 kg chacune. Il est le plus grand musée du monde et bien le seul dans ce domaine : le fil de fer barbelé, inventé par un fermier en 1874 puis électrisé en 1889. A l'intérieur du musée, on découvre toutes sortes de barbelés, on en compte plus de 500 modèles avec plus de 2 000 variations. On peut y voir des machines à fabriquer le barbelé.

Lynn Ceraldi

Who knew that there is a barbwire collectors association! If you ever wondered about the west, ranching and Barb Wire, this is a must see place. And it's free!

Janis RB

Ok, it was closed, but I was able to see inside. It is closed Jan -Mar. Loved it

Diane Taylor

Exilerating to see the old Burma Shave signs. So many were lost over time. Barbed wire was more interesting than l imagined. Top it off wih fun, articulate and polite members, a great experience! Oh, and clean bathrooms available.!

Jim Wellborn

Great place to tour very interesting, young lady at desk very friendly and helpful a pleasure to talk with

Ch C

This museum is a real gem on old route 66, and its free! There are so many aspects to ranching that I, a Pennsylvanian, was unaware of. There is even a section that is dedicated to barbed wire in war. The areas that interested me the most were the room on the Dust Bowl era, the variety of ways to install barbed wire and the witty tidbits of information there for the reading. This is not a professionally done museum so if you come expecting that you'll be disappointed. It is rustic and fun and really worth a stop. P.s.There is also a suprizingly good and afordable gift shop.

Michael Schrokosch

Great place to visit in the middle of nowhere.

I stopped by on a road trip across the country. I had no idea how many different types of barbed wire there were! There is also a great collection of Route 66 memorabilia.

Bill Ouellette

A must see when traveling through that area.

Amy Graham

Lots to look at and it's all free. They do have a little souvenir shop and they had really cheap prices compared to other places we saw. Lots of hands on exhibits, good place to check out some history

Callan Griffiths

Cool museum with a lot of history. Never knew that barbed wire could be so fascinating. Free to get in but donations are appreciated.
