Moab Museum
A small local museum in the center of Moab telling the story of its indigenous peoples, Mormon pioneers, the uranium boom and its transformation into an outdoor recreation capital.
The museum displays dinosaur fossils, indigenous artifacts, materials on the uranium boom of the 1950s and the history of filmmaking in the area. It helps visitors understand how Moab changed from a mining town into a center for outdoor recreation. It is small, and about an hour is enough to see it all, making it a good option for the hot afternoon. It is near Main Street and within walking distance of restaurants and outdoor gear shops. Admission is inexpensive.
