Pioneertown was built in the 1940s as a live-in Wild West movie set and offered temporary housing for cast and crew. It was the site for many TV shows including The Cisco Kid and Judge Roy Bean.
Today you can still roam its dirt roads; it’s a bizarre sort of “old western Disneyland.” While you’re there, don’t miss the bowling alley, reconstructed jail, bathhouse, bank, realistic dummies, fake crows, and dynamite props.

The impressive structure was constructed by ufologist George van Tassel in 1959. The blueprints are influenced by UFO channellings and the works of Nikola Tesla are said to have been provided to van Tassel by aliens from Venus.
Dubbed a “fusion of art, science, and magic,” its purpose is to tap into invisible magnetic fields and electromagnetic frequencies that affect biological cells. Van Tassel claimed that the cells of anyone who was within the structure were rejuvenated.
