Rialto: Wigwam Motel

Rialto: Wigwam Motel

The Wigwam Motel in San Bernardino, California, is one of the last remaining examples of the iconic “Wigwam Villages,” originally built in 1949. The motel, with its distinctive teepee-shaped rooms, became a classic roadside attraction along Route 66, offering travelers a unique lodging experience. Its architectural novelty and place on the famed highway have made it a symbol of the golden age of American road trips and automobile tourism.

Nearby, visitors can explore the historic Adobe Church, a 19th-century structure that reflects the region's Spanish and Mexican heritage. This simple, yet beautifully preserved building offers a look into the early days of religious life in Southern California. Another nearby destination is the Rialto Theatre, a vintage movie palace that dates back to 1925.
