HOOKER COUNTY HISTORICAL MUSEUM

114 NW First Street
Mullen, NE  69152

The Mullen Historical Hotel was originally the Hamm Hotel and it now houses the Hooker County Historical Museum. The building was sold in the early 1980s to the Mullen Historical Society. It has been renovated to house exhibits in every room on each of the three floors. One of the most talked about exhibits is the upstairs military room and hallway. Framed photos of our military men and women line the hallway of the 3rd floor.

This is an impressive display of the area’s wartime and peacetime military.  Among other interesting exhibits you will find a pioneer kitchen and washroom, an early beauty shop, a one-room schoolroom complete with desks and books, a cowboy room, a music room, church room, periodicals, and other displays tracing the history and the people of this area. The museum is open Memorial weekend and for various local events and by appointment. Visitors who come without reservations will find a sign on the door with phone numbers so they can call for assistance with viewing the museum.
