The Pioneer Living History Village, sometimes called the Pioneer Living History Museum, is a living museum in Phoenix, Arizona.
Plans for the living museum were first made in 1956 by a group of Arizona history enthusiasts who formed the "Pioneer Arizona Foundation, Inc". Some of the original founders included Paul Fannin, Barry Goldwater, Carl Hayden, and Wesley Bolin.
The grand opening of the museum was celebrated February 15, 1969.
