Los Alamos Historical Museum
Los Alamos Historical Museum Review
The Los Alamos Historical Museum, in a log building beside Fuller Lodge, displays exhibits on the once-volatile geological history of the volcanic Jémez Mountains, the 700-year history of human life in this area, and more on—you guessed it—the Manhattan Project. It's rather jarring to observe ancient Puebloan potsherds and arrowheads in one display and photos of an obliterated Nagasaki in the next.
