Excellent restoration of the barracks and use of the space at Jefferson Barracks. Just one small part of the whole Jefferson Barracks park area experience and other museums. The guide and reception were terrific and very helpful!

They have really done an excellent job of restoring Jefferson barracks into a great museum. The film presentations are great. The community, volunteers and museum board should be very proud.

What a fantastic tour and a trip down memory lane! Great variety of artifacts and very knowledgeable docents. Kids got to see phones from across history and make a few rotary phone calls, as well. Lots of inter workings of phone to see.
