Review & FAQ:

Housed inside the same building as the Oakley community library, the Fick Fossil and History Museum was created to showcase the wonderful fossil and art collection of the Fick family. More than 11,000 fossils and shark teeth are on display, but the highlight of the collection is a 15-foot mosasaur fossil, the oldest known fossil of its kind in the world. In addition to the fossil collection, the museum features a replica of the town's first General Store, an authentic sod house, and a variety of eclectic folk art created by one of the museum's founders.
