Exploring Montana's Past

The Castle Museum and Carriage House is open for business only during the summer. In the warm months, the museum attracts visitors from across the country, eager to learn more about the unique building and the aesthetic county. This week, the Castle Museum had a very special visitor, one that will showcase the museum to a broader audience. The Extreme History Project, a nonprofit organization located in Montana, is dedicated to the preservation and dissemination of the history of the American West. Through various educational programs, events, and resources, the organization engages the community in understanding and appreciating the unique historical narratives of the region. By fostering a deeper connection to local history, the Extreme History Project contributes to broader efforts of historical preservation and education. The Extreme History Project is currently filming "The Story of Us: The Women Who Shaped Montana." The organization visited the Castle Museum and Carriage House to film parts of their upcoming episode. The Castle shared their excitement on filming day via Facebook, “The Extreme History Project was here today with our very own Sheryl filming for an upcoming episode featuring Rose Gordon! We cannot wait to see the result and share it with all of you!” The Extreme History Project filmed in other areas around the state, including Helena, Browning, and East Glacier. All filming locations, including White Sulphur Springs, provided unique and important historical venues to further the impact of the upcoming episode on notable women in Montana history. Furthermore, the Castle Museum and Carriage House showcases the rich history of the area, including exhibits on local heritage, artifacts, and stories from the past. The museum offers visitors a glimpse into the town's past and provides a unique opportunity to learn about the cultural and historical significance of White Sulphur Springs and its surroundings. All in all, the Castle Museum and Carriage House continue to play a vital role in preserving and showcasing the rich history of White Sulphur Springs and its surroundings. The recent collaboration with the Extreme History Project highlights the museum's significance and broadens its reach to a wider audience. By participating in the filming of "The Story of Us: The Women Who Shaped Montana," the museum contributes to the important narrative of notable women in Montana history. This partnership not only enhances the museum's visibility but also reinforces its mission to educate and engage the community in understanding and appreciating local heritage.
