4.5 The Barn Museum (11 reviews)
- Large Beautiful Collection
Friday: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Speciality Museums

We loved this place. I don't know if it was the amazing capacity for one man to have dedicated so much time to building these homes/barns/towns or the fact that we had been shopping in the Colonies all day and it was a great reprieve. Either way this place was amazing. I loved reading about the history behind each of the creations. There were so many across the two floors of the museum. Admission was beyond reasonable for how much you got to see. To me this was the best thing we got to see the whole day. I would say if this is your first time going to the colonies to either do this first or last because you will get to see some of the actual buildings in the colonies. I think it made me appreciate it even more. See more..
