Many more cars than I expected all beautifully restored. Especially enjoyed their Kissel car collection and the connection with Harford.

This is worth a trip especially if your into old school cars. I enjoyed all of it. Only wish it had AC cause it was hot. I took so much more

Very nice museum. A must see for car lovers

Excellent COVID time destination. Plenty of room. Handicap accessible. We spent time with my mom there since her assisted living doesnt allow inside visiting.

Operated by volunteers. Very clean place. $10 admission for adults. Sooooo worth it. Come on out and learn some cool stuff! I am not a car fanatic but my boyfriend is... we both left amazed and we were glad we drove 35 minutes for it. Great Father’s Day trip please enjoy the pictures. There is 2 floors. (There are elevators).

Family loved it even my 1year old son. Love the history and the amazing old cars.The trains were amazing to watch. The people were very friendly and very knowledgeable about the cars. Definitely would like to come back.

Two floors of fine looking automobiles, including a Kissel Kar and Nash behind glass in the lobby. Well presented, includes some examples of unrestored Kissels and the Wisconsin racing HOF. Toss in an interesting Lionel layout and a full size stream engine for good measure.

Great collection of lesser known autos and memorabilia. Particularly interesting is the copious amounts of personal history from Kissel including personal scrapbook with early company notes and patents. Many interesting hood ornaments. Plenty of better known companies as well, fantastic 57 Lincoln Continental and a beautiful 36 Studebaker Dictator. Too much to list, if you love things that move head on down for a few hours.

Have came here a few times and always learn something new about Kessel and the cars. Nice collection of automobiles and even a real train to check out! The mode train set is my favorite.

So many neat old cars, and a working steam locomotive too! It is inside for maintenance now

Absolutely amazing. Reasonable prices. My 8 year old says it was the best day ever.

Im 48 years olds and never heard of the Kissel. This is a great little museum.

We came here because my husband is very interested in anything automotive but I enjoyed it too. (more than I expected to, actually ;-) The cars are beautifully restored. There were tidbits of information such as the type of car driven by a young woman alone cross country in I915. The first to do so. I like that type of human interest story. Theres a large model train display that is fascinating to watch.

A great collection of restored vehicles, including relatively rare Kissel automobiles manufactured in Hartford, Wisconsin, where the museum is located. NASCAR autos are also there, as well as trucks, gas pumps, gas gloves, a terrific operational model railroad, as well as an operational train engine with several attached cars. Its easy to spend hours in this two level museum.

Just driving by cause we were out and about. Didnt know that it was there because we are not from the area. It was a awesome time and looking at all the different types of cars.

If your an old car buff, this is one place you dont want to miss. Beautiful collection of old cars and a lot of old automotive equipment around the museum. Really cool train layout set up at the beginning. Located in a beautiful old town setting in Hartford Wisconsin. I would highly recommend this museum.Thank you,Wade

Home of Soo Line #1003.

Great collection of cars! The staff was very friendly.

Pretty cool, had cars from Wisconsin i had never even heard of. The locomotive engine is awesome as well. For ten bucks you cant go wrong

Staff really knows the history of everything here! Nice layout, clean and doesnt stink like gas!

Loved looking back at all these old cars, a step back in time

Really enjoyed the visit lots of cars a real steam locomotive, and I learned about some car manufacturers that I didnt know much about. Well worth it for the admission fee of only $10.

Lots to see and some beautiful cars!!

Great selection of cars. Was interesting to see early models, got a good chuckle from the lamps that were used as headlights and the steering rods instead of wheels. Also was great to check out the steam train, it was mammoth! My kids really enjoyed it here. Definitely recommend. The volunteer working that day was very informative and did a great job!

My wife and I visited the museum for Mothers Day and had just a wonderful experience and a wonderful afternoon

Great auto museum in a nice little city. Theres enough things to see here but not so much that its too much to see. The main focus is on Kissel cars that were luxury cars built in Hartford and Nash / AMC cars built in Kenosha. Plenty of others to see too. Theres a steam train on railroad tracks upstairs and a huge model train layout downstairs at the front door. Its a great place to visit.

Good details on all cars. And there is a steam locomotive an airplane and a boat.

What a place in Washington county Wisconsin! Many amazing vehicles. A large train set up. A full-size locomotive to view. Many kisses that were made right in Hartford Wisconsin.

Two-story museum with many Nash and Kissel cars on the first floor and an eclectic mix of other cars on the second floor.

Worth the stop for a boy and his love of cars. They still have an old train set up and wow!

Very cool collection of cars, trucks, and more. Definitely worth a visit.

Very fun and nice place to visit. So much cool things to enjoy!!!!

A great museum that you dont expect to be there.

Has a special NASH room sponsored by the NASH car club of America. Very nice collection of cars and memorabilia. Only thing I noticed needs improvement is the lighting. Need to up grade with LEDs.

Great museum with very knowledgeable employees

Pretty neat place for a car lover!! Nicely displayed! Also not just cars here although it is an auto museum. I highly recommend!

We love coming here. A really great selection and history of old cars, a real train, and model trains which clearly are the favorite of our little kids.

Beautiful collection of old cars,,and a locomotive!

If youre a true fan of automobiles this a must see!! The history behind the cars that were made in Hartford. The Kissel Motor Company How it started. How it ended. You will get to see many different makes of cars. Many that you will never see again!! They also have a working locomotive that has been rebuilt. Keep this part of our history alive!! Take your time walk around the indoor museum. This is what made Hartford what it is today. One of the companies that made Wisconsin the machine shop to the world!!

Awesome display! My 7 - year old son thought the big train set was really cool too. Could have easily spent an entire day here!

Cool collection of kissel cars, also many other cars, and a handful of other vehicles such as an airplane and a steam engine. There are maybe three dozen outboard boat motors. Good value very interesting.

This museum is fantastic! They have the largest Kissel Kar collection!

Excellent and varied collection of vintage, unusual collection of cars plus some additional types of vehicles. Took my hubby to the museum for Fathers Day. He really loved it. C

An interesting piece of Wisconsin history, that few people know about. My 3 year old grandson had a great time, never got bored. Mostly about the Kissel Car Company, but a lot of Nashes, and some other classics. Take a walk around Hartford too. Nice town, great ice cream/ candy store named Scoop DeVille.

Bigger then I thought and really cool!!

All I can say is wow! This place must have inspired the great Nat King Cole to write the song unforgettable! If you visit once, youll be back!

Great museum. So much to see with a lot of local history

Very cool cars - great history!The HUGE model train layout was a great surprise!

Very extensive train tracks and layout. Lovely cars. MN

Wonderful Volunteers, great history

It was an ok museum. Been to many different car museums over the years Ive liked better

Nice collection of unique cars, friendly informative staff. also got to see the steam engine in operation.

Wow! Cars and trucks made in Hartford? Wonderful to be surprised by the history not taught in school. I am coming back with my grandsons.

A lot of history here. The cars are fabulous. Allow a couple of hours here.

They were very reasonable for oil changesI wasnt expecting to have my questions answered by such a kind staff they did everything to make my visit a pleasant one, and they rotate your tires every other oil change was very happy and will be returning

No where else can you see these beautiful cars. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff--really enjoyed my tour thru history.

Cool to learn about the kissel car made not far from this location and the big selection of nash cars as well from kenosha

Absolutely great! If youre into early not common car manufacturers, then this is a place for you.

Great for a family!

Such a cool museum, great for kids. They have a great model train at the entrance that honestly my boys would rather look at rather than the historic cars. Two floors of cars, some old tractors, fire trucks even a real train upstairs. A lot Kessel models, Nash and other vintage models.

Very nice

Great displays and history. Well worth going.

This is a terrific auto museum with a focus on Wisconsin built cars. Kessel in particular.

We all enjoyed this museum. Informative signage, plenty of cars to look at and enjoy. Wear warm clothing as it was somewhat chilly inside.

Bigger than it looks and at $10 its a good way to kill about and hour are more

Nice little Sunday afternoon field trip. Highly recommended.

Fabulous collection! Friendly greeter/cashier.

A lot of interesting auto history and the model train is well done as well as the real steam engine. Great work.

Nice museum for car buffs and more

Top class automobile museum showcasing automobiles of past vintage cars, steam engines etc. So many cars with interesting features. By visiting this place one feels that he is in his past.

Great place to visit. The kids loved the train

It is a very nice place, this is the third visit for me

Tons of early auto history here.

One of Hartfords hidden gems! I love this place! super cool to see the Wisconsin Short Track Hall Of Fame race cars in here also! Support your local short track racing!

Had a good time walking around enjoyed seeing the history about Kissel cars

The model train track is an entertaining and captivating sight. The museum is like a portal into the automotive past of the country. The cars on display are some of the rarest vintage cars ever put on display. You literally walk through history. There are cars from not just Kisseler but from other manufacturers such as Ford and Chevrolet. While Ford produced budget friendly cars, and still does till today, Kisseler produced rather expensive cars but couldnt survive the great depression. There is also an actual, real, non-model, fully functional, coal fired, steam powered locomotive tucked on the 2nd floor, how it got there is a question I didnt ask.

A lot of history and well organized.

Went to see the trains and the big train and all the cars

Great museum! Have taken my Red Hat ladies and my grandchildren and daughter there. The history of the cars was so interesting. Elevator is nice for those that cant do stairs.

Great experience and very cool cars on exhibit!

Nice little museum.Good for a day trip.

Surprised really nice collection . Interesting item

Wonderful display! Awesome staff!

Very cool place!

Great entertaining afternoon!

What a great experience! Seeing the old cars, trucks, outboard motors, etc. brought back great memories and opportunity to share with the kids.

Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Great selection of automobiles to see. History on display and well worth the drive.

This museum is very charming. While the name of it may derive your impression on it, its not just vintage cars they own. Theres also a diner, a plane hanging from the ceiling on the second floor, and my personal favorite, train exhibits, which includes a Lionel layout and Soo Line 1003, one of only 10 mainline steam locomotives left in the United States. As for the cars, it ranges from Fords, Chevrolets, etc. etc. If you like transportation, this is worth at least one visit.

Such a great hidden jem. We learned so much about Wisconsin made cars

Cool cars of old.

Awesome history and cars

Its great to learn about some local history and take a trip down memory lane. Lots to see there!

Very neat to see! My son loved the giant train town set up..

Excellent! Allow a few hours to see everything.

If you like automotive anything or historical anything. Then youll enjoy this place.

Fun place for any mechanical enthusiast

Loved all the antique cars and grandchildren loved it.

Extensive collection of Kissels, informative staff.

Awesome displays

Great Musium for all!!
