International UFO Museum

Located in Roswell, New Mexico, the International UFO Museum and Research Center was founded in 1991 and is located in a former movie theater from the 1930s. Inside the museum, you'll find an extensive library and exhibits revolving around the history of UFO encounters. The museum's catalyst was the 1947 Roswell UFO incident of a crashed spacecraft discovered by rancher, W. W. "Mack" Brazel who found metal debris outside of Roswell close to a giant trench that spanned hundreds of feet. The museum also contains a gift store with UFO-themed souvenirs.
