Reviews
"So interesting to see and lots to look at."
"Such a unique place. Loved looking at all of the antiques and memorabilia here. Great place to stop and go thru. One day we will go back."
"Nice owner worker and did a tour for us in a group, nice play, and took 40 minutes"
"It took us a while to find. We had drove right past it. Then we finally found it and thhey were closed. I don't remember seeing any hours on the website. Needless to say, I was disappointed."
"This is a museum for the author of our great song "The Old Rugged Cross". One of the very best Christian songs ever written. Now also in this museum is more memorabilia from that time in the 1800s, antiques from the period, the town, and the family of the author. They have rooms sectioned off displaying the period artifacts. Display cases also, old school, hairdresser, dentist, firetruck, etc. Antique piano and organs. Interesting and free. Few gift items you may purchase to remember your visit. Donations welcome. Plenty of parking on the side of the building and is also the entrance."
