Cookhouse Museum
Battle Mountain
The museum building was moved from the 25 Ranch, which once belonged to the W.T. Jenkins family, to its current location in November 2000. The 1920s building first served as a cookhouse and in later years as a bunkhouse. Seven grants from Nevada State Cultural Affairs Department and local government support, along with many contributions from local businesses, community members, and mining companies funded the renovation of the building, which was opened as a museum and historical library in 2012. Since then, thousands of guests have toured the museum.
