    My daughter in front of the opera house
    Wolfy H.

    Just took my 5 year old daughter on a route 50 trip and the Opera House was fantastic. It's beautiful and very well maintained. The lady who helped us (can't remember her name but she is originally from Colombia) was incredibly kind and helpful - she was awesome! Definitely worth stopping to see!

    Hi there; the Eureka Opera House is NOT closed thankyouverymuch. It is very much alive and kicking and available for special event rentals (meetings, art classes, weddings, wakes, and if my dreams ever become a reality - Iron Chef style battles in their large chef's kitchen). From the 1880s brick exterior, to the oilcloth drop curtain painted in the 1920s, this place is a piece of history. The acts that have performed here have all signed the hallway in colorful markers (including most of my family that was probably either clogged on stage or performed in some small play). There used to be an apartment upstairs (there are bathrooms now), where my grandmother lived for a while. I have a serious soft spot for this venue.

    We stopped by this afternoon to check out this little gem and was so glad we did…read more Julie greeted us with a warm smile and a bubbly personality. She was so helpful and got us started in the right direction to view the museum. There are a lot of eclectic artifacts everything from mining to WW2 to various school artifacts and turn of the century agricultural equipment. We spent a couple hours or so in there viewing everything. The outside is deceiving as it looks so small but there is so much to see inside. The cost is a very humble donation of a minimum of $5. Well worth it to see so much history. Not only of Ely and surrounding areas, but of various historical events not specific to Ely. (Newspaper of the Titanic Disaster and Newspaper of the end of WW2 etc) If you're in the area, please do give this little museum a look. Very interesting indeed.

    I really enjoyed my visit here. There is so much to see that you could spend hours looking at all…read morethe things and reading the many descriptions. I started outside--the woman explained I could do it either of two ways--so I chose outdoors first. I was amazed when I saw an 1870s Keystone well drill. My father was a water well driller in Pennsylvania and I grew up around this kind of equipment, but I never knew that there was one that was made a lot from wood. I don't think I would have been as comfortable climbing that derrick as I was with the metal rungs I had to climb. There are Nevada Northern railroad cars, the former depot for Ely, a one room schoolhouse and so much more. The schoolhouse was interesting for me. I can't imagine teaching 10-15 kids in one room that might be 7 or 8 different years in age. Inside, there are geological items, a section of old medicine bottles, Shoshone items, and the recreation of a giant short-faced Nevada bear. I didn't even know such an animal existed. A good stop. A plus was the woman told me the McGill Drugstore was open and she gave me the hours.
