Great film experience with Washington's Tent, and hopefully future shows to come! I also appreciated how each board started with a key sentence that really helped you grasp the subject quickly.

Plan on going more than once. I spent about two hours here and know I didn't see all of it. Beautifully done, definitely put a lot of time and thought into it. Had interactive "stuff" and movies .

The hands-on Patriot Center, films , knowledgeable staff , and cafe are awesome. We bought a family membership! Our kids (ages 5, 8, and 10) loved it. They are opening a family center in the fall.

As a pretty new museum they’ve got an impressive mix of media / artifact / interactive displays. Also takes a more nuanced look at the role of native Americans, women, African Americans, etc than most

Went in here on a whim. They've got a pretty cool thing going here. I could have spent more time at this museum but my group grew weary. There is a good deal of reading involved.

The best museum to the Revolution that is in America. It’s lay out is great the movies and exhibits are fantastic. The staff is friendly knowledgeable and informative. Great museum .

The museum was spectacular. We spent 5 hours. The show in each section was very informative. The last show about Washington's tent was thrilling.

Incredible museum for history lovers. I spent 2.5 hours here and felt a little rushed, so make sure you leave enough time

Loved this museum !!! Lots of hands on displays for kids. Very informative place.

John Facella

So many artifacts to view , including Washington's tent; you'll need some time to read and explore all the media and exhibits .

If you’re here for an event after hours, the valet is probably free. Make sure you ask.

Да, англичане тут порезвились. В форме Вашингтон, реально бился за независимость хотя и герой Британии до этого
