Practically dedicated to U.S.Grant. Cigar stub, boot; holy relics. Buck for a deer hide. Priceless context of local guy.

Nice little museum although opening video presentation was difficult to see, very dimly lit. Rest of items were quite interesting. Several one of a kind paintings as well as original flags...

There is a ton to see here!! The most famous painting of when the Civil War ended is here and it's massive!!! There is a neat holographic movie before you get to wander around the museum!!! The gift store is full of really cool stuff!! A fair warning though-- to get to certain parts, there's flights of stairs and they're a bit steep (that's just how the houses from that time period were made though). The staff is wonderful and if you can do the stairs, the paintings are all up there!! Worth the price of admission!!!

Great museum, this is also part of the Grant museum. For sure a must see if you are in town and visiting Gelena and the Grant home. They have a book you can buy that highlights parts of its past and shows its current photo and location.
