3. 5.0 K-25 History Center (12 reviews)
   - Worth the detour off of I-75
   Sunday: 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM History Museums
   
   
   We were directed to the K-25 Center by a Park Ranger at the Children's Museum after she described the exhibits at that location as mainly stories about the people involved in the Manhattan project. We were looking for the history of the effort begun in the 1940s. The exhibits and the guide comments showed us what we were looking for. The museum is very near the actual site of the half mile long building where the uranium was enriched. We spent about an hour there but we went out of our trip plan to see the area which is loaded with this history. It was worth the detour. See more..
