'“The museum displays historical artifacts and antique items that tell the story of Medicine Lodge,” says John Nixon, Stockade Board President. “People really find it interesting that we have on display the actual peace pipe used in the signing of the 1867 peace treaty.”

"Other features include old photos that depict the Medicine Lodge bank robbery of 1884 in which two bank officials were shot and killed, an old jail and the Smith Log Cabin built in 1877." ~ Kansas Living
