We came with our six kids today and it did not disappoint. This is the best museum we have been to in the area. Endless artifacts and information to read with plenty for the littles ones to play with upstairs. My smaller girls loved the store and picking corn and my teen could have spent hours reading up on everything. A bonus was how friendly everyone was. Thank you for an excellent experience for everyone. We’ll be back!

Took our kids and they even enjoyed it. They had a lot of neat things and the history was just cool to see. The kids enjoyed it all, and so did we. Thank you.

This is a great little museum, full of interesting displays that appeal to both kids and grown-ups, plus some fun play areas and hands-on activities. It’s full of local history, but it’s also a fascinating look at rural and small-town America throughout history - the full-size models, including a general store and a doctor’s office, are fantastic. Kids get a free booklet with a scavenger hunt and puzzles to fill out, which helped us notice details we might otherwise have missed - like the doll from 1745!

We had a blast at this museum. What a gem! There are just so many cool artifacts from the past to appreciate. I love that there are no barriers between the visitors and the artifacts, so you could get up close and personal. Some of these items are over a hundred years old and are in amazing shape! The museum is well maintained and the staff are super helpful. We went on a weekday right after it opened, and we got to have the museum to ourselves! It's great for both kids and adults and has an elevator. The entrance fee for an adult is $5. Worth every penny!

This museum is fantastic! There are so many wonderful pieces and exhibits. They offer new exhibits every few months and have a working trade show in the fall. It is a wonderful place to learn about local history as well as general Tennessee history. The ladies who work there are very kind, helpful, and informative. The admission is only $5 per person and worth every penny! I highly recommend making a part of a day trip to the Athens Tennessee area!

Exceeded expectations! Brought 4 kids (ages 11, 10, 8 and 7), and there was plenty to interest them AND for them to interact with. They didn't want to leave the garden/roadside veggie stand with a milkable cow and played for a good 45 minutes. There's tons to learn about McMinn County - whether you're a resident or visitor, I highly recommend a trip!
