About C.M. Russell Museum

The museum is devoted to the art, life and legacy of Charles M. Russell, the Great Falls painter of the American West. Its galleries hold Russell paintings, sculptures and illustrated letters alongside Western and Indigenous art by other artists. On the same grounds you can see the two-story house Russell built in 1900 and the log cabin studio he added in 1903, both a National Historic Landmark. The museum also displays the 200-piece Browning Firearms Collection.
