Traveler reviews
Amazing two days at WWII Museum
Spent two days. Could’ve spent another. It was amazing. Great volunteer docent. Amazing exhibits. So many oral history accounts by people who lived through World War II. I highly recommend it.
Very cool experience!
If you are a history buff, this place is definitely not one to miss! Before you even get inside, there are plenty of things to see outside the building. And inside, you could get lost for the next few days and still not see everything! I recommend purchasing the ticket that includes the 4D movie. It was definitely worth the extra money. There are so many exhibits inside that really immerse you into the times. Right at the beginning you get on a stationary train and watch some footage and hear some audio that makes you feel like you’re one of the boys going off to war. You can get a “dog tag” on a card and follow an individual throughout their whole experience, and find out if they lived or died. One of my favorite exhibits was the Anne Frank exhibit. They had her house made up, with the infamous bookcase. You could even sit on the furniture and it made you feel like you were actually there. They also had another house made up this way, and several rooms of exhibits with actual “snow” etc, that made you feel very immersed in the places/stories. We stayed for several hours and didn’t feel like we even made a dent in the place. Give yourself a lot of time!
Look at the map closely...
Look at the map closely and plan. It is a little overwhelming, but well worth it!! There is so much to see - so you definitely want to plan so as to not miss anything!
History is well documented
This place was so big you get lost. This is a must see for anyone. The staff was great. Put on your walking shoes
Must See Museum
It was an amazing and emotional tour. I would highly recommend it to anyone to learn about the war and the sacrifices made to keep our freedom.
