The Custer Battlefield Museum has artifacts from the battle at Little Bighorn related to General Custer and the 7th Cavalry, as well as the Indian natives Crazy Horse, and Sitting Bull.

Montana Pro Rodeo Hall and Wall of Fame
This is a perpetual memorial to the professional cowboys and cowgirls in Montana who ride in rodeos. There is a memorial wall with names of rodeo champions, a huge bronze statue of Mortensen, a six time World Champion riding Tee Box, a bronco horse. It’s free to visit this memorial.
