My wife, who studied historic preservation, said it's the best museum she's probably ever seen. We spent hours here looking around and would absolutely come back again.

Meaning smaller screens and less than optimal seating.

There are small, medium, and large music boxes that you can put a coin in and they play and some of them have moving parts and animation - the kids loved it! There are old clocks, traditional clothing from long ago, and a fake mine shaft with gems and stones. There is a nice little cafe and clean restrooms.
