Reviews
"Great place to visit"
"A small museum with a lot of local history. Well worth the stop. The steam engine was refurbished and an amazing site."
"I love this place. So much history preserved. They have 3 buildings of history to go through. I spent more time in the schoolhouse because I personally find that more interesting. The staff is always super friendly."
"So many things to see! You could go on every day and find something new. There's also a great variety, definitely something for everyone to be interested in. The people who volunteer are so nice and knowledgeable. They make you feel like you grew up in Amboy."
"No better collection of pieces of the unique history of the one-time headquarters to the Illinois Central Railroad and the city of Amboy can be found anywhere. This museum is not only a staple of the community, but a treasured jewel in Lee County."
