Well-laid out, modern (2012) museum telling the story of General Braddock’s defeat in 1755. George Washington’s second major battle - both defeats. Nice 22’ x 18’ special events room with video projector in the back.
They brought this place back great job and helping the kids
Teacher's open house experience was well worth taking the time to visit. New ideas to integrate into the classroom and revitalize the love of history.
Beautiful historical paintings. A nice short film.
A very interesting introduction to an almost forgotten, and largely misundert battle that precipated a world war that opened the possibility of the American Revolution. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The young man giving the tour was a little nervous and turns out a student. He did a creditable job and even offered some facts I did not know. The museum is looking to expand and could become quite an experience. The museum is located on the area of the battle. We were told over 450 people who died in that battle are left in the ground where people go by largely unaware of the significant event that had such a profound shaping of the history of the world, eventually giving birth to our country and getting possibly the greatest leader our country has ever known, George Washington,early noteriety for how he led, as a young 23 year old, organizing a retreat under vicious fire.
