Santaquin Chieftain Museum

Santaquin's free town museum fills a former elementary school built in 1903, which taught local kids until the early 1980s and was dedicated as a museum in 1990. Fifteen rooms each cover a piece of town life, including a blacksmith shop, mine room, post office, country store and a miniature town. Pick up the free Historical Sites booklet for a walking tour of the town afterward.
