In 1975 the Cherokee Strip Museum Association acquired the former Alva City Hospital building with its 40 rooms to house one of Oklahoma's best collections of pioneer exhibits. Several of the rooms are set up to display specific period artifacts.
* Gun Room * Hat Room * Drug Store * Prisoner of War Room * Kitchen * Country Store * Model Railroad * Old Saloon * Oklahoma Room * Student's Room * Telephone Room * Military Room
There is also an Agricultural Building, an Implement Yard, and a One Room School House located on the grounds of the Museum complex.
