Reviews
"We always love the blacksmith. Getting to watch them actually work the metal is just so neat. My kids loved being able to take a mini horse shoe home."
"Great displays. Get to watch the forge at work. Nice story line given of history."
"A very educational experience! The gentleman working the smithy was great! We watched him make a mini horseshoe and then he gave it to us!!!! The wainwright side was also super educational and intriguing."
"Nauvoo was fantastic. Walk around the streets and the inside of businesses, buildings and homes of the pioneers. The missionaries were so well versed and able to not only quote and share pioneer stories but also hands-on experiences at the printing press, blacksmiths and many more! Highly recommend! Our family even got a souvenir horseshoe to take home with us!"
"Great site to bring small kids for educational experiences. The person demonstrating what happen at the Webb Brothers Blacksmith Shop is very informative and you even get a free horseshoe nail ring. Years prior I remember a different demonstration and story about a "diamond ring", but still was great experience back in 2010."
