Reviews
"The lady in museum Sheree Pace is very kind and helpful we went to get information for a school project. Its a fun outing."
"Very informative Olympian park with a full museum and replica of Jesse Owens' childhood home! In the small cabin, an audio track plays as you look around and imagine what life must have been like for 11 people in the tiny dwelling."
"The Jesse Owens Museum is a true treasure. Inside the museum you are able to see through the exhibits and movie, Jesse as an athlete, a spouse and as an individual doing work on a national level. My 9 y.o. and 10 y.o really enjoyed the visit. Please the staff were super nice!"
"This was a great day trip! I had no idea it was here. That's a real shame bc its a wonderful, well-kept tribute to a true American hero. I learned a great deal about Mr. Owens while visiting this museum. I was inspired by his accomplishments in athletics as well as just being a honorable person."
"Visited the museum on a day trip recently. It’s off the beaten path but if you can take the time well worth it. It is small but a great tribute to this historic athlete. Be sure and see the video presentation of Jesse Owens and his amazing accomplishments. Great job Oakville."
