Simba 🐾 and I took a stroll through history at the Oasis Bordello Museum in Wallace, Idaho—one of the town’s most unusual and fascinating landmarks. Once an active bordello during Wallace’s mining boom, the building has been preserved just as it was when it abruptly closed in the 1980s. Today, it’s a quirky museum offering a glimpse into the colorful past of this historic mining town.

A Museum Frozen in Time

What makes the Oasis Bordello Museum so unique is its authenticity. When the bordello closed its doors in the 1980s, it was left just as it was, complete with furnishings, décor, and personal belongings. Walking past the building (and inside if you choose to take the tour), you’ll find yourself stepping into a slice of frontier life that feels equal parts historic, quirky, and eye-opening.
