Located just across the street from the University of Arizona, the Arizona History Museum brings to life history from the Spanish colonial times through the territorial eras in Southern Arizona. Check out the exhibit explaining the people, events, and changing boundaries that influenced how Arizona looks today.

The Arizona History Museum also has an exhibit examining the mysterious Silverbell artifacts. Historians are still struggling to explain how these artifacts dug up right here in Tucson got here. They are Roman in nature and pre-date any other European settlement in the area!
