#### See bones, skulls and the complete skeletons of creatures of all sizes, from delicate hummingbirds and frogs to a huge humpback whale, at this unusual museum.

The Museum of Osteology is devoted to a rather unusual topic: the study of bones. Explore a fascinating and unique collection that showcases nearly 300 complete skeletons across a 7,000-square-foot (650-square-meter) exhibition space.

Note that the privately owned museum grew out of one of Jay Villemarette’s private skull collections, which was showcased in his Oklahoma City Skulls Unlimited shop. The shop, which has been open since 1986, drew interest from far and wide and led Villemarette to set up a complementary museum.

The museum is divided into several sections, each of which is designed with education in mind. Learn about how animals have changed to better suit their changing habits in the Adaptation and Locomotionexhibition. Find out how penguins adapted to help them swim, how gophers adapted to help them dig and how sloths and monkeys adapted to help them climb trees.

Participate in hands-on activities at the Explorer’s Corner, where visitors can touch authentic animal skulls. After learning about the distinguishing characteristics of various species, test yourself on the Mystery Skulls challenge. Other exhibits focus on forensic pathology and how evidence on skulls can hint at the cause of death.

Other displays are divided based on animal categories. Find lemurs, lorises and tarsiers in the primate sections and newts, salamanders and toads in the reptiles and amphibians section. Among the biggest skeletons on display is one belonging to a humpback whale, which measures about 40 feet (12 meters) long. At the smaller end of the spectrum are tiny mice and shrews. Also of note is the rare Javan rhinoceros, a critically endangered species native to Java, Indonesia. It is thought as few as 58 survive in the wild.

The Museum of Osteology is located about a 15-minute drive south of Downtown Oklahoma City. The museum is open daily, with limited opening hours on Sundays. There is an entrance fee. The museum shares a site with the Skulls Unlimited shop. Browse the store next door to buy rare real bones or replica items.

8.4/10 Very Good! (657 reviews)

Front desk staff were very helpful. Night manager was not. There were some safety features that should be added to the bathrooms and lowering the bed base would make getting in and out of bed much easier.

9.8/10 Exceptional! (453 reviews)

Incredibly nice hotel with beautiful rooms, great location and attractive landscaping. I would definitely stay here again. Weird that it's listed as a two star hotel. It's much nicer than a 2 star hotel.

9/10 Wonderful! (604 reviews)

The ONLY complaint I have/had every time I have stayed there are the ridiculous pillows! I paid $1600.00 for 3 nights to visit my son in Stillwater, Oklahoma and I had 4 small square pillows on each bed. Do better. I will not stay there again just for that fact. I slept horribly and for the rooms to be triple and sometimes quadruple the regular price there is ZERO reason to not have adult pillows.
