Wallowa County Museum
Wallowa County Museum Review
The Wallowa County Museum in Joseph has a small but poignant collection of artifacts and photographs chronicling the Nez Perce Wars, a series of battles against the U.S. Army that took place in the late 1870s. Built as a bank in 1888, the building was robbed in 1896, an event that is reenacted with full pageantry every Wednesday at 1 pm in summer, complete with music, dancing girls, gunshots and, as one would expect, much yelping.
