Built in 1888, this historic hotel displays various photographs and artifacts telling the history of Lancaster. This social event taps into the past and traditions while inviting the community back to the landmark hotel.
As one of the most visible and vibrant links to Antelope Valley's history, preserving and reintroducing tradition and history is essential for the Western Hotel Museum. The building serves as a historical hub, housing photographs and artifacts of the people who built, worked, and lived in early Lancaster. This historic hotel has served the Antelope Valley community approximately since 1888, even through changing events and responsibilities. The various items displayed throughout the building provide a sense of nostalgia for present-day visitors. Photographs of early Lancaster, prehistoric and Native American material, household items from the 1900s, and more will give guests a memorable experience.
