The Wright Centennial Museum
In Wright


The mission of the Wright Museum is to interpret and preserve the history, culture and development of Southern Campbell County. Here you’ll find historic mining equipment and supplies, artifacts from the homestead days, World War I memorabilia and various individual displays, and historic farm implements and tools. One of the items on display outside the museum is a 70-ton truck that was used at the Black Thunder Mine southeast of Wright until the mines began to use the much larger trucks in use today. ARCO donated this truck to the museum in 1990.
