New and Improved experience at the Dalton Defenders Museum. Theyve moved across the street. Well laid out museum. Museum has a lot of cool exhibits regarding local history and of course the Dalton raid and the heroes who stopped them. If youre in the area, I recommend you stop by for a visit then see the outside places where it all went down. Its one thing to read about it but when you see it with your own eyes, you understand how foolhardy it was to try and rob two banks at once.
Neat place. Definitely need to check it out if youre close
The new location offers more room and more exhibits. The staff are courteous and knowledgeable of the local history. Time well spent here!
Alot of very cool and super rare stuff from the coffeyille area. A must see next time your in coffeyille. Your go to place to buy coffeyille and dalton gang gifts
Alot of info about the Dalton gang, we really enjoyed the trip.
Outstanding city museum. A have to see when you pass though Coffeyville Ks
So as a pivotal event that was a signal to the end of the Wild West, this museum also offers insight to the way of life in Coffeyville from the founding days to World War Two. Coffeyville as a city is beautiful and more people and businesses would do well to come and explore, I would also say that ita a great place to live in and grow!
Grea place comes great mind
I really enjoyed this museum. They are so knowledgeable and passionate! I brought my mother, who isnt very passionate about old west outlaws and shoot outs, but she left with a new interest in the history of our countrys rough and tumble past. Im looking forward to stopping in again!
New location with more space. Very cool history of south east Kansas. Quiet community of people that stood up against outlaws and won. Nice 45 minute video and a lot of old memorabilia. Ishams hardware that armed citizens is still open and doing business after all these years. Very good to see 100 year old business.
This is a very educational and interesting place. I learned so much while taking a group of youth there. If you go, see if you can find out whats so special about ICEEs. :)
This is a great little place. Lots of history and very warm and friendly staff! Had a wonderful time!
Wow, this is great. Lot to see very interesting. The volunteers were so nice and helpful.
Small but subsequent museum of not only the story of the Dalton Gang and their ill fated raid on Coffeyville, but also highlights Coffeyville history, notable residents and regional stories. You can opt to watch a History Channel documentary on the Dalton Gang and the raid, however it is long. You can easily spend a couple of hours going through all the documents, pictures and walking through downtown to follow the Daltons downfall. However, I would not recommend this place to young children as there are numerous instances of the Dalton Gangs death photos throughout the museum.
We enjoyed this very much
New , bigger building and we got a guided tour of Death Alley !
Very well done. Great historical value and many artifacts. Well worth the trip
This place was awesome! Not too big as to be overwhelming, but full of information about the Daltons attempt to rob the two town banks. Lots of photos and news articles. We thoroughly enjoyed it.
Neat little museum that explores Coffeyville history and the people that come from here.
Thank goodness for Rob Burrows, and the other ones who did the work
Super cool place! A must visit place when passing through town to learn about the Dalton gang!
Lots of cool history of Coffeyville here! If they are open I would recommend a stop!
Loved this. We stopped on a whim having remembered the Dalton raid story from when I was a kid. The museum is a good local affair. The curator is passionate about the towns history and a pleasure to talk to.Fun stop for an hour or two.
Disappointed in this museum.

Had to walk in with my hands up I didnt want to get shot kidding of course.
All the way from Tennessee. The host was great. Very knowledgeable and they have a huge memorabilia. Its like walking back in time
The history is so cool!
What a wonderful place to see. And did you know that they are moving to a new Location right next Death Alley.
Enjoyed it very much !! Great people working there very pleasant and knowledgeable.
Great museum including Coffeyville history.
It have a lot of artifact to see, the place is small but all is fantastic.
What a great history lesson in crime doesnt pay! So much history in one place! The volunteers are great too! Everyone from the youngest to the oldest found something interesting. And dont forget to follow the horseshoe prints over to Death Alley and the old jail.
Wonderful place to learn the history.
Cool history

The man and woman who runs the museum are very knowledgeable and friendly! My husband and I really enjoyed the museum!
Been going here since I was a kid. Great museum and worth the trip
Staff was less than enthusiastic, but the museum was entertaining for about a thirty minute experience.
