Local residents used to refer to the building as the “poor farm” because many of the patients were elderly men without families to care for them. The building was later used as a boarding house. In 1960, NAPHS bought the structure and converted it into a museum. In 1963, the museum was opened to the public. Also located on the museum grounds is a barn and root cellar that date from the period of the hospital. The barn was built in 1910 to house county workhorses. It is now the museum annex where much of the collections are stored, including a sheep wagon and the City of Flagstaff’s second motorized fire truck, a 1923 American La France. The root cellar, located behind the museum, is where the hospital stored vegetables grown for its own use. In 1967, the 1908 Ben Doney homestead cabin was moved to the museum grounds from its original building site on the east side of Flagstaff.
