In 1895, Western scout and showman William F. ("Buffalo Bill") Cody laid out the original townsite of Cody, Wyoming, and named it in his honor. Old Trail Town preserves the lifestyle and history of the Frontier West through a rare collection of authentic structures and furnishings. Historic buildings from remote locations in Wyoming and Montana were carefully disassembled, moved, and reassembled there by Western historian Bob Edgar and friends. The site also holds thousands of historic artifacts from the Old West and gravesites of several notable Western figures, including mountain man John Johnson, portrayed by Robert Redford in the 1972 motion picture "Jeremiah Johnson." It also includes the original cabins used by Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, a Wyoming saloon frequented by Cassidy's Hole-in-the-Wall Gang, and the log cabin of Curley, a Crow Indian army scout who helped guide Lt. Col. George A. Custer and the U.S. 7th Cavalry to the battle of the Little Big Horn in 1876. Old Trail Town stands as a memorial to the unique American experience known as the Old West.
