The National Drovers Hall of Fame is a museum located in Ellsworth, Kansas. The museum is dedicated to the history of the cattle drives that took place in the late 19th century, where cowboys would drive large herds of cattle from Texas to Kansas for sale.

The museum features exhibits that showcase the history of the cattle industry, including displays of cowboy gear, photographs, and artifacts. Visitors can learn about the famous drovers who made the cattle drives, such as Jesse Chisholm, and the importance of the cattle industry to the development of the American West.

In addition to the exhibits, the National Drovers Hall of Fame hosts events throughout the year, including a cowboy poetry gathering and a chuckwagon cook-off. The museum also offers educational programs for school groups and tours for visitors.

The National Drovers Hall of Fame is located in a historic building that was once a bank and later a hotel. The building was restored in the 1990s and now serves as a tribute to the men and women who helped shape the cattle industry and the American West.
