The Wilder Museum is one of the very best little local types of museums I've ever seen. It has over…read more3,000 exhibits, most of local interest but others that would score international interest such as the Joseph DeFrees antique gun collection. It's no ordinary collection. The guns of this collection are striking examples of the exceptionally rare and ultimate works of gunsmithing and metal engraving. Besides the 1963 Mercedes favorite car of National Forge owner Robert Wilder, there are all sorts of examples of the works and products of national forge. Then there are Indian artifacts and histories covering nearly 8,000 years of the county bordering Seneca Indian Nation. There is a good history of Seneca Chief Cornplanter along with the monument dedicated to his memory. With so many significant things you should at least plan upon a 3 hour visit as the war or military not only takes some time but contains exhibits that are real eye openers as to the history of the many military engagements depicted. I found the antique medical area, much of which I remember to be downright frightening. It's unbelievable how primitive our medical sciences were only as far back as the 40's and 50's. Overall it's a great museum, well worth seeing and a Yelp Five Stars with me.

Great hands on play for kids!…read more This place was a great experience for my kids aged 5 to 8. The free parking lot is right across the street from the entrance making it easy to navigate. After entering the main floor has a few small hands on art based activities. I highly recommend starting on the top floor and working your way down. The top floor has so much to do and we ran out of time before we could check everything out. The museum was clean and well organized. Lots of hands on activities for all age levels. Every kid will find something to enjoy. The shopping experience was one of their favorites. We spent about two hours but could have easily stayed longer.

For me with a lifetime immersed within the oil industry, a visit to the Drake Museum, the world's…read morefirst oil well and the birthplace of the oil industry, it's a holy shrine; the Mecca of the petroleum industry. It was here in 1859 that Edwin Drake using improvised salt water drilling equipment was the first man to ever drill for and strike oil. The well, only 69 1/2 feet deep culminated with a production of a mere 22 barrels of oil, but that meager amount was enough to then double what was then the entire oil production of the world. The importance of this well and Drake's achievement can in no way be underestimated in that it proved the means by which modern day society could establish itself with the necessary energy resources to develop into what it is today. Though small, the museum is all encompassing, complete and accurate in every detail. Not only does it give accurate accounts of Drake's original well which you can see first hand, but also the development of technology and oil recovery methods through the years, everything from primary to secondary recovery methods such as the use of nitro glycerin explosives along with their inherent dangers. Matter of fact, it is interesting to read that when a nitro handler suffered an inadvertent explosion, they didn't just report him as a death but he and his entire wagon or equipment as a "disappearance," because in fact the resultant effects of such a terrific explosion often did end up with a complete disappearance from the face of the earth. Besides being a good museum and an educational experience, the surrounding grounds offer a perfect park like atmosphere, tranquil and enjoyable for everyone.

We were looking for a fun experience for my husband's big sis, and boy did we find it at Bayernhof!…read moreI couldn't recommend this museum more highly. Lisa, our tour guide, was just perfect - entertaining, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and fun. Our 2-hour experience was a joy - it passed so quickly! You call ahead to arrange a tour, and Lisa returned my call maybe a day or 2 later. We arranged it for a Tuesday morning at 10am (the other option was something like 2pm). The 19,000 square foot Bavarian-inspired home is atop a large hill outside Sharpsburg overlooking the Allegheny - and with a lovely view of downtown. You come thru the gate and park near the door. Inside, Lisa talks a bit about the foyer - chock full of collectibles - and takes you to the main room with that fabulous view, a comfy room with a bar just off the kitchen. You settle in to wait for everyone to arrive. The lecture there takes about 30mins, & you learn about the wealthy, quirky eccentric, Charlie "Chuck" Brown, who built this quirky home in 1982. He was a total prankster who had very little sense about how to build a really stable home. After his death, the board would save the home for all to enjoy. The real treat is hearing from some of the 165 music machines spread thruout the house - some Chuck collected, some purchased by the board set up by Chuck's lawyer, Dave, who - with Chuck's faithful secretary - took on the Herculean task after Chuck's death of fulfilling his dream of turning the home into a museum. The mysteries of the home reveal themselves as you go - and Lisa relishes in showing them off - from the hidden doors, wet bars (in almost every room! Chuck loved to entertain though he was socially awkward!), observatory, below ground cellar, cave, and pool room with a waterfall. It's great. Lisa shares tons of stories, knowledge, anecdotes, and more. Our favorite of the fabulous musical machines: the cylinder player on the landing that has a tiny dancing black bird figure inside; the singing birds with real feathers (!!) in the bird cage upstairs; the uber-art deco Decap machine downstairs with the purple velvet pool table; and the fringe lamp victrola in the upstairs guest room. As you're walking thru the house, you can't believe all there is to see and learn. We were fascinated! Just go! You won't regret it.

Tony the bartender was such a great time and there were several people working there who helped show me around and tell me more about the history of the building as well as some fun facts about the exhibits. As a comedian, my expectations were simultaneously low and high, and the National Comedy Center truly excelled all of them. I spent 3 hrs here and it wasn't enough.
