Atlanta History Center, Atlanta

Loved visiting here! The exhibits are super informative and the Cyclorama is especially impressive. They provide a very balanced viewpoint on Atlanta History and try to appease both sides of the Civil War. It's a little weird to see, but given the area and the fact Stone Mountain exists, not too surprising. They don't relent on the facts though. Overall, I would definitely recommend natives and visitors alike to visit this place. There's so much to see, you could easily spend hours here.

Scenic views, great location to explore for bigger groups. We especially loved the goats and sheep. The museum had an impactful exhibit about the community of Atlanta—with information about topics ranging from national movements to individual families. The civil war cyclorama exhibit also provided a great example of how art can be used to alter depictions of history.
