The Museum is the authentically restored home of General George Crook. It was constructed in 1879 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Adjoining the Museum is the Crook House Victorian Heirloom Garden, which overlooks the majestic parade ground and historic buildings of Historic Fort Omaha. Many of the more than 110 varieties of heirloom flowers, trees and shrubs are native to Nebraska. Some plants were originally carried here on wagon trains or were available by mail order catalog in the 1880s. Perennials surround four central carpet beds of annuals, patterned like an Oriental rug to create an outside parlor where many hours would have been spent to capture the cool breezes.
