The Roy Rogers - Dale Evans Museum

Roy Rogers and Dale Evans were singing, movie, and television icons during the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. In the later part of the 1960s they opened a museum featuring mementos from their personal and professional lives. Since that time the Roy Rogers-Dale Evans museum has had three locations, and is currently located in Branson, Missouri. Below is a brief time-line of the museum and its locations.

  • After purchasing and renovating an old bowling alley, Roy Rogers and Dale Evans
    first opened their museum in Apple Valley, California in 1967.
  • In 1976 the museum was moved to a bigger building in nearby Victorville, California.
  • Finally, in 2003 the museum was moved to its current home in Branson, Missouri.

Currently in Branson, Missouri

The Roy Rogers-Dale Evans museum is currently located at 3950 Green Mountain Drive, Branson, Missouri,  65616.

A Personal Museum

From the very beginning Roy Rogers wanted his and Dale's museum to be an intimate experience for visitors, and they delighted in filling it with mementos of every kind from their personal and professional lives. Before passing away in 1998, when the museum was still located in California, Roy loved to walk around it with Dale in the mornings before it opened to the public, enjoying the history of their lives. He also tried to visit the museum every morning after it opened to meet with and speak to his visiting fans. He took great care to always dress in his cowboy hat, cowboy boots, fancy shirt, and bandana because he knew his fans would be disappointed if they saw him any other way.

And Trigger, Too

Of all of the Roy Rogers-Dale Evans museum exhibits none is more famous than Trigger, Roy's golden palomino stallion. When Trigger died in 1965 Roy had the horse mounted over a plastic likeness of a rearing horse by Bischoff's Taxidermy, located at that time in Los Angeles, California. In addition to Trigger, Dale's buckskin horse Buttermilk, Trigger Jr., and Bullet the Wonder Dog were all mounted after their deaths and can also be seen at the museum.
