The Saloon in the glory days of the Old West was a haven for the worn and thirsty, host to story swapping and celebration … the symbol of shelter amidst the desolate void. These relic notions of the Wild West have been immortalized in twangy ballads with guitar, harmonica, and fiddle, or colorful canvas by Frederick Remington, and in a magnificent structure called the Cheyenne Saloon & Opera House. The centerpiece of Church Street Station’s glory days, the Cheyenne Saloon & Opera House showcases both local and nationally renowned musicians with an unparalleled country western flair. Completed in 1982, and made up of over 250,000 board feet of golden oak lumber from a century old Ohio barn, it took more than 50 craftsmen nearly 2 ½ years to construct. The Church Street Station construction crew labored to erect Mortise and Tenon trusses for the ceiling support, built without bolts or plates in the Old World tradition. More than 5,000 spindles grace the tri-level building, as well as carved rails, banisters and balustrades, all handmade at our on-site Great American Restorations Mill shop. The establishment’s logo, an echo of the famous 'Coming Through the Rye' sculpture by Remington, is visible on everything from T-shirts to mirrors to the spectacular third-level stained glass window. In fact, 11 of the Remington’s sculptures can be seen in the Cheyenne. "The grand dome is overwhelming in its beauty, as are the bevel-cut, jewel-cut and zipper-cut glass entrance doors." Locals who remember the good times at the Cheyenne Saloon looked forward to the re-opening, anticipating excellent entertainment in a one-of-a-kind venue.
