This cool old building was built around 1853 as a stagecoach stop and
later went on to become a hotel operated at different times as the Black
Hotel and then after the Civil War as the Pulaski House. During the civil
war it was occupied by Union troops and served as a hospital. It became
vacant in the late 1950s and is now a museum with limited hours on Saturdays
from April to September .
It is located located on the the east side of the Square.

About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
Did
You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane
road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned
lanes are still there.
