Reviews
"You arrive to a large parking lot that is wheelchair friendly. The initial desk staff is friendly and very helpful in getting you started. The exhibits are well lighted and layed out logically. There are several short movies that make the exhibits much clearer. The artifacts and writeups are clear and concise. Love the use of holograms Outside recreations of a farm and encampment bring it home when you speak to interpreters. Thur knowledge of all aspects of colonial life during the American revolution era is astounding. An amazing bit of history that made us who we are."
"It was all great. The indoor and outdoor exhibits were great. The short films were outstanding. The outdoor personnel were very knowledgeable and very authentic looking. We had a great time."
"Great museum and though outside reenactment campsite is small it was well done. My only regret was going too late in the day. With kids the outdoor stuff is most interesting and kid friendly. Inside is more adult focused but there was one exhibit where you can type in what liberty means to you and the kids enjoyed that because they show up on electronic lanterns hanging on the tree in the exhibit. If you go with young kids, just set your expectations. Everything is stroller friendly. Would definitely go again without the kids to read more signs."
"Excellent museum with a very well laid out path through history up to just after the declaration of Independence was signed. The guns were the highlight because frankly, who doesn't like them? You really gain an appreciation for what our ancestors went through to gain independence. Highly recommend."
"The museum is very well laid out and expertly presented. All of the museums and tours in the area do a very good job at presenting how the countries of Spain and England influenced the early government, cultures, laws, and trades of the early settlers, but could not dictate or control the human will. The story is very well presented of how their early influence affected the course of the development of a new nation, being modified by the commoners in the new land, developing their own culture of human acceptance and endurance and governance. The museum grounds also provide live interactive reenactments of trades, family life, cultures, and military practices. It is well worth the time spent to tour the campus."
