This museum focuses around the Brea-Olinda oil field. It has many artifacts from the early 1900s as well as a large loop trail that goes up in the hills and get's great views of the oil rigs. There are even a few earth caches here, including one of mine. Parking is found in the parking lot just to the south of here. The museum is open to the public only on Wednesdays and Sundays from 11am to 4pm.
