Interesting and informative. We took our 5 year old and I wouldnt recommend taking small children. All areas require lots of reading, which isnt easy to do with a preschooler on tow. Both employees were very kind. I would like to see a self-guided audio tour made available. Also, a scavenger hunt for children would be a nice addition. Tickets are good for 2 days, but since we dont live in the area, we arent able to use them tomorrow.

Want to learn of the long and honorable service of women in the Military?This is an excellent way to not only educate yourself on little known and often overlooked history .. including the women who dressed as men to serve, led their units, were recognized for their bravery and combat as well as surgical skills.Recommend to take children here to help them understand!The one time entry cost is good for 4 museums over 2 days as well!Oh, and you are encouraged to take photos too.

A museum in a time-period house that was moved and donated! I enjoyed reading the facts on the walls, along with all the memorabilia. I felt like I got to meet different women individually with their stories of their own personal civil war contributions. I enjoyed teaching my own two little girls about the trials and tribulations other women went through. Its a little gem thats a must visit!

Amazing exhibit with uniforms throughout all the wars. A great place to tour and brush up on a bit of history. You don’t need hours to spend here, it is a small museum.

I took my son to Lowes to get some wood to build his jungle gym for the grandkids, we got there kinda late for a Friday night, but they wasnt very busy,.so we looked around for a while before we started gethering up the wood we needed, and it didnt take us anytime at all to find what we needed and get back on the road to home, the workers there was pleasant and helpful, I think it was the fastest trip we made to Lowes and back home . Since they wasnt busy, we was in and out fast.

Except for needing a bigger sign, everything was wonderfully displayed and explained. It also needs elevator access to the 2nd floor.

Review №25

Very simply, a museum. I didnt expect great things, but I was pleasantly surprised! The curator has compiled a great display centered on Women. Other Civil War museums have done many of the same displays but by centering on Women, this one makes the patron reflect on the bravery of our ForeMothers! As a man, I have a tremendous respect for Women that Serve our Country! To do so in our Civil War... and suffering the trivails that said service would have required... These Women are Absolutely Tremendous roll models!

Nothing you cant learn.online for free. Im pretty sure thats whete they got their info. Low quality ftamed images printed from the internet in one room is the entire women in the civil war collection. Other rooms hold a lot of uninteresting stuff the most amateur historian will have at least a passing knowledge of.

Near this museum is the main civil war museum; and the historical village. A veterans memorial is also located at the corner of 1st Street - a fitting tribute to the veterans of ww1 to present.

One would think that An attraction such as this would have its hours that it is open listed somewhere, anywhere online, so a person could make appropriate plans to visit the attraction.
