HISTORY ABOUNDS
Augusta’s very roots can be envisioned with a visit to the C.N. James Log Cabin. Built just after the Civil War of hand-hewn cottonwood logs, the
cabin housed the city’s first school, post office and general store. The cabin is one of only two pioneer houses in the state of Kansas still on its original site. A building adjacent to the cabin houses the Augusta Historical Museum with numerous collections showcasing Augusta’s pioneer beginnings, the arrival of the railroad, and it’s place in the oil boom.
Experience a current movie or live performance at the Augusta Historic Theatre. This centerpiece was the first movie house in America to be lit entirely by neon and it remains rich with nostalgia and Art Deco grandeur.
Aviation and WWII buffs will find much to explore amid more than 10,000 artifacts contained in the Augusta Air Museum. Boasting more than 10,000 artifacts from full-size military vehicles, uniforms and airplanes to models, avionics instruments and more.
