There's a nice eclectic displays throughout the building, many are hands on. Most feature something of the history of Montgomery Co. It also has a nice gift shop that is a great place for picking up unique gifts.

A lot of quirky things related to Clarksville. The outside of the old building is probably the highlight.

This is a neat little museum in downtown Clarksville. My Corvette club did a cruise to it on last Saturday. Admission on Saturday was free. I think it is about $5-7 during the week.

While it has been a year since we were there...it was a Harley Davidson exhibit! My son loved the hands-on science area in the basement. I love the antique items and THE TRAIN SET! A Must see for all ages.

The kids love the activity room downstairs, especially the bubble room. It's like a mini-Adventure Science Center. The rest of the museum (with the exception of the model trains & antique fire trucks) is more geared towards adults. Children tend to loose interest in these areas quickly.

Very nice museum- the exhibits vary widely in tastes and types. Amazing kid's area with a bubble room! Really great historical section with all types of buggies and carts from the 1800's. Staff was very friendly. I got free tickets to the museum at the counter at F&M Bank (downtown Clarksville), worth a shot if you are interested in visiting.... More

Don't waste your time. This place is so boring! If you must go to this museum, go on the" free day". I think it's either Sunday or Monday. Otherwise, save your money for a fun excursion in Nashville, which incidentally, is less than an hour away!
