I was not planning to visit the museum but we walked by and decided to give it a shot. I am so glad that I did. The museum takes you on a full history of Vermont from Native American history to colonization, to their efforts in the American Revolution to statehood and beyond. As you begin it starts at a wigwam and as you walk through you are able to get the full story of Vermont. Their displays are excellent with plenty of artifacts which tell a complete story of who, what, where, when, why and how. If I remember correctly we only paid about $7 per adult person and it was worth it. They also have a small gift shop which had some great items to purchase. For the purposes of planning your visit it can take you anywhere from 1-2 hours to see all exhibits, maybe more if you really get into reading all the stories. I highly recommend this Musuem, you won’t be disappointed. …

We visited this place on October 9. It is a one floor museum where you get a view of the Vermont history. Do not expect a state of the art museum. It seems more a museum for schoolchildren to actively get an idea what the inhabitants did in those days.

This charming, old hotel now houses the Vermont state museum which gives a good overview of the history of the state and how it connects to NY State. Well displayed and enjoyable.
