A nice break from drinking bourbon all day. The fee is $12.00 but that gets you 3 museums (Civil War, Village, and Military/Civil War Women) and you get 2 days to visit everything. Some of the displays messages are in need of updating as they are weathered but other than that its a really good chance to see artifacts from the civil war as well as even seeing memorabilia from just about every conflict the US has ever been in.

For one entry fee you get to see the historic village as well as 3 museums. While the museums can use a bit of updating, and perhaps a little more details on artifacts, they are each packed with tons of artifacts and relics! If you’re into history of any of the wars it is worth going by; your ticket admission is good for two days, so you can always come by the second day if it’s too much to do at once. There is a picnic pavilion in the historic village, but you do have to pay to go down there (included in admission fee). They could probably charge a little more and do some refreshing with the displays and add more detail and it still be worth it even for one of the three museums and the village. I would love to see the village with interpreters or for a festival. We couldn’t go in the walnut hull grinding mill but I would have liked to see that too. Overall, well worth it if you like American history.

Well done museum. While everyone else is visiting distilleries getting frunk from multiple tastings, we got our history on. Lots of personal items from local families and some cool recreations as well. The layout is nice and easily navigated. The outdoor buildings were cool to explore. This is the first stop on Museum Row so buy the tickets for all three museums.
