Perkins Building/Old Condon Bank , This is the bank that Grat Dalton, Dick Broadwell, and Bill Powers attempted to rob. When they asked for the money in the vault, they were told that the time lock wouldn't open for 10 minutes. As they waited, gun shots began near the First National Bank and the men tried to get back to their horses to escape. After the raid there were about 300 bullet holes found in this building alone. Tour the bank Monday-Friday 9-5.

Death Alley , If you look to your left you will be looking west down Death Alley. This is the famous alley where the Dalton Gang tied their horses up, and also where they were killed by Coffeyville citizens. Those who were killed down the alley include Dalton Gang Members Grat Dalton, Bob Dalton, and Bill Powers, and a Coffeyville citizen named Charles Connelly.

Old City Jail , This is the original jail cell where the bodies of the Dalton Gang members were housed before they were buried the next day. Emmett Dalton was thrown in here because he was expected to die from the 23 bullets that entered his body, but he survived and was transported to The Lansing Kansas prison. The old jail that you see today has been re-constructed with the original stone.

Cubine Boots , In 1876 John W. Cubine helped put Coffeyville on the map by creating a cowboy boot that fit the left and right foot individually. Before this, all boots were constructed exactly the same and didn't have a specific fit for each foot. Cubine's popular fit spread across the country, and he is known as the creator of the first left and right cowboy boot. John's nephew, George Cubine, and another employee from the boot shop, Charles Brown, were both killed defending Coffeyville on the day of the Dalton Raid.

First National Bank , This was the bank located just north of Isham's Hardware. Bob and Emmett Dalton robbed the First National Bank on October 5, 1892. They got $20,000 out, but all of the money was recovered when the raid ended. The building burnt down in the late 1890's.

Isham Hardware , Isham's is the oldest hardware store in Kansas dating back to 1870. This was one of the stores supplying guns to Coffeyville citizens to fight back in the Dalton Raid.
