Frontier Gateway Museum

Local museum with Hell Creek fossils, Native material, homestead history, and railroad displays.

Frontier Gateway Museum is the useful local-history stop in Glendive. Its exhibits run from fossils and Native material through homesteaders, cattlemen, the railroad, and small-town life on the Yellowstone River.

It is also on the Montana Dinosaur Trail. That matters here: the museum helps connect Makoshika's badlands to the wider Hell Creek fossil story rather than leaving the park as just a scenic drive.
