Well worth the visit. Scary to think it was used until 1979. The car museum was also well worth the visit. One ticket got you into multiple museums

Fun to see all the different cars with their listed prices. Nothing has changed the wealthy could afford the Cadillac and Lincoln's. They have one of the first electric cars so that's not a new idea and it was fancy.

Well worth the trip out to Deere Lodge. It was really great, do all the museums in the area. Make sure you Stop by the prison made store. I'm glad we went out of the way to visit.this area of Montana.

It is part of the Old Prison (maybe extra charge) and I was very impressed with the number and old and newer models of cars and some trucks.
