Description
Welcome!

Welcome to the Clemenceau Heritage Museum which is managed and operated by volunteers of the Verde Historical Society.

Mission

Located in Cottonwood, AZ, the museum preserves and displays the artifacts and heritage - written, oral and living - of the Verde Valley.

History

The Museum opened in November 1991, occupying former classrooms of the Clemenceau School. It was (and remains) a labor of love and dedication on the part of the Verde Historical Society, whose members put in countless volunteer hours to make the museum a reality, and who continue to staff and maintain it, ensuring the continued preservation of the history of the Verde Valley

Artifact Collections
Regularly changing exhibits

Regularly changing exhibits feature special collections from the museum archives and of members and friends of the museum. Such exhibits have included Fiestaware, perfume bottles, tea pots, cowboy/girl prize belt buckles, clocks, salt & pepper shakers ... an interesting and fascinating assortment of objects. ​

Model Trains

The Clemenceau Museum's Model Train Room is a moving history lesson and a model railroader's dream come true.

A passion for trains has attracted a group of committed railroad buffs who formed the Museum's Railroad Committee. Together, they've recreated the heyday of the rails in the Verde Valley and keep the trains running on schedule.
