Film narrative was redundant to esteemed speaker at museum, no pictures allowed. Chairs were somewhat uncomfortable. Visitor center was not open. Grounds were interesting and well maintained.

To be clear, this review is based on the experience from our visit. The center itself, its history, purpose, and story are inspiring. We bought tickets for the guided tour, but it wasn’t a tour at all. We heard the guide speak about place for about 10-15 min then watched a 30-40 min documentary. I was expecting and hoping for a walking tour around the property! Save your money and just do the self-guided tour. After sitting so long with our ADHD son, we had to leave as he was done.
