The Route 66 Historical Village at 3770 Southwest Boulevard in Tulsa, Oklahoma, is an open-air museum along historic U.S. Route 66. The village includes a 194-foot-tall oil derrick at the historic site of the first oil strike in Tulsa on June 25, 1901, which helped make Tulsa the "Oil Capital of the World". In a nod to Route 66, it has the Route 66 Village Station, a tourism information center modeled after a 1920s-1930s gas station, which includes a giant Route 66 map for travelers.
