    A very interesting museum, you can be just a few feet away from amazing documents. Exhibits rotate, but I think the WW2 items may be constants.

    An interesting collection of historical documents. Lots from Charles Darwin. Treaties/terms of agreement ending World War II and description of German/Russian spy are highlights. Free! Near Wright Park conservatory.

    Must visit as it is amazing! Small but rich history and changing displays. Wonderful curator. It was a true delight to speak with him.
