Wilson's Creek National Battlefield 5242 South State Highway Zz, Republic, MO 65738

"Admittance was FREE❤️ A+ Museum and grounds become very sacred to you, when you realise the life loss there and the significance of the battle being fought. We went to go back to see the film (some reason was not showing). We appreciated things being very handicap friendly, even the Ray House had a paved walk all the way to it."

"We have been here several times and we always enjoy it. There are great trails and it's loaded with history of course. This trip was for their Luminary Tour. The battlefield is lit up with lanterns that represent the wounded and the fallen. There are testimonials given by both the Union and the Confederate at all 3 stops. Very well done."

"Visited on our way to Branson and since we didn't get to see everything after three hours, we drove back for a second day of visiting. So much to see despite the battle only lasting six hours. The electric map of the battle was very informative since we didn't watch the 28 minute video. Staff in the visitor center are very helpful in answering any questions that we had. The Ray house was a great stop on the tour with the volunteer guide telling us the history of the Ray family and what they experienced on that day. Appreciated seeing pictures of how the grounds look that day. A definite visit if you love America history!"

"What a wonderful place to learn about a terrible part of American history. The museum was incredible. A true must see for anyone traveling to the Springfield, Missouri area. Whether you walk the trails or drive through it is a great place for all. They gave my 11 year old nephew a bunch of badges for filling out a pamphlet/booklet that they provide. It is a very interactive place for kids as well as adults."
