  • I grew up in Carthage and went to the Kibbe Museum when very young. I remembered the 2-headed pig in a jar and the 2-headed calf. Those memories kept me from re-visiting all this time. Returned this.....  more

  • This is a great little museum. The guide at the desk was knowledgeable and let us wander around to our hearts' content. The rock/geode collection was impressive as was the funeral and mourning exhibit. My husband's favorite was the refurbished car. It's always fun and interesting to see a slice of a towns life "back in the day". Thanks!
  • Went for their train display, it was very cool with many different trains in different sizes and some educational notes. The rest of museum also has neat things, such as sections dedicated to healthcare history and President Abraham Lincoln. Many other neat things to look at. Only downside is that there are many things that don't have a description of what they are or what made them special. Maybe the attendants knew the answers I wanted, I didn't try to ask because it was almost closing time.
