Murray City Museum

A free city museum that has moved into the historic Cahoon Mansion on Poplar Street. Its main exhibit, Land, Lead, and Leadership, follows Murray from farm town to smelter town between 1870 and 1950, and a second exhibit in the City Hall hallways uses family artifacts and aerial maps going back to 1937. Staff are part time and it sometimes closes during posted hours, so call (801) 264-2589 first.
