This eclectic museum is sometimes referred to as “The Nations Attic.” It houses numerous memorabilia and artifacts collected throughout American history. The American Presidency section exhibits the many facets of the nations highest office and the impact it has had in those who have held it. Another section contains objects that highlight the cultural history of the country including Mohammed Alis boxing gloves and the inaugural ball gowns of many of the First Ladies. Exhibits on science and technology, military history and much more can be found on the three floors of this fascinating museum. Stop by the old-fashioned ice cream parlor before you leave. Admission is free.
