Guthrie
stands on the gentle rolling prairie of Oklahoma once occupied by
Native Americans and herds of grazing buffalo. Born of the Great Land
Run of April 22, 1889, this dusty prairie stop along the AT&SF
Railroad became a city of over 10,000 people in a single day. Built to
Victorian elegance, the magnificent architecture of Oklahoma’s first
State Capital, still stands today as a National Historic Landmark.
History is brought to life each day on Historic Trolley Tours and in
places like the Oklahoma Territorial Museum, Oklahoma Publishing Museum
& the Frontier Drugstore Museum.
Ongoing
restoration since the 1980's has preserved Guthrie's rich architectural
legacy and all its grandeur. Almost all of the original 19th century
buildings remain and most of the commercial structures have been
restored. Today, Guthrie is the largest contiguous urban historic
district on the National Register, extending 1,400 acres and 400 city
blocks. A living museum of late 19th century architecture, Guthrie was
designated a National Landmark Community in 1999.
With
four more museums, the world largest Scottish Rite Masonic Temple,
live productions at the Pollard Theatre, the best of bluegrass music at
the Double Stop Music Hall, year round events at the Lazy E Arena, six
annual festivals and so much more, there’s always a great reason to
visit Guthrie. Visitors can shop the numerous boutiques, specialty
shops and art galleries downtown and see the homes of governors,
editors and lawmen. Guthrie's historic residential areas, jubilant
festivals, bronc-busting rodeos, live professional theatre, fascinating
museums, historic trolley tours, exquisite dining and charming lodging
make Guthrie a wonderful place for the whole family.
So,
