** The U.S. Cavalry Museum is closed for renovation. But look for upcoming information on the reopening. **

The U. S Cavalry Museum is located in Fort Riley's historic main post district. Originally constructed in 1855 for use as a hospital, the building was remodeled and became headquarters to the Cavalry and Light Artillery School in 1890. In 1957, the building was designated as home of the Cavalry Museum.

Visitors enjoy exhibit galleries that take them on a historic tour of the cavalry's history, from the Revolutionary War through inactivation in 1950.

Admission is free, but donations are accepted.
