Reviews
"Great museum! The museum is a bit older, but has great displays that do an excellent job telling a story with models, artifacts, and descriptions. If you are on Fort Leavenworth, it should be one of your planned stops. The hours are limited so be sure to double check that they are open before heading over to the museum."
"Very nice, clean museum with lots to look at for adults and kids! My littles (2yrs, 1yr) loved getting to walk around pointing out all the horses and cows and colorful wagons and the super cool airplane! It was a fun little adventure and I am sure we will be pack to visit it all again soon lol"
"Fort Leavenworth Kansas is the oldest continuing operated US Army Fort east of the Mississippi River, it was established in 1827. The Frontier Museum contains over 7,000 artifacts and a very interesting "Beyond Lewis and Clark Exhibit". Custer was once stationed here. We were cheerfully greeted upon our arrival to visit the museum. Watched a 15 minute film before walking through this gigantic laid out museum with incredible displays and dioramas. They also have a audio tour at select points. Very historical and covers the Frontier Army from 1804 to 1917 and Fort Leavenworth to the present. The soldiers of the US 10th Cavalry were based here and were the first to be called "Buffalo Soldiers". The gift shop was nice as well."
"Lots of original military pieces. Museum has information on history of the fort, military history of the west and information on the westward expansion. Audio clips available for select displays in the museum, so don't forget headphones."
"An excellent gem of American history tucked away with artifacts that can probably only be found at this museum. If you are coming to this fort you will not want to miss this museum."
