    An incredible Museum. I love to share the places I can visit. Whether I pay a ticket, check out a library pass or find free entrance to a Museum .... Free entrance to this one. It is very eye opening and educational. There is much to see. It also includes a furnished room of the Era where you can even listen to a program of that year. My nephew and I learned and observed many things. If you can make the time to go, I am sure you will not be sorry. Free Entrance

    So little information is displayed, but still educational.

    Always emotionally moving in some way and the sub-themes are changed often, it would likely be different every time you came if you were to see it every few months , honestly idk the schedule I just notice it when I return to do jobs at the college with the business I work for, sometimes I’m there everyday. It is always interesting and thought provoking.

    I loved the walk-in living room and the "life parallels" exhibited. Samples of sitting rooms found in the different communities during WWII would really help advance your message in a memorable way.

    The Museum houses powerful exhibits that explain the history of World War II and show the Georgia connections to these world events.

    This is A small, free museum on campus. There are Alot of pictures, and detailed accounts, to read. There is A small, recreation of A 1940's living room, that you can go into and listen to actual news broadcasts, announcing America joining the war. It is handicap accessible.

    This was a bit of a surprise since it's not too obvious it exists in the building. If I wasn't attending a class in the building, I likely would have missed it. The setup is designed for you to walk through time as you reflect on the events of that period. There is a lot to think about. If you have a chance to visit, please do.

    This museum is dedicated to educating the public on the Holocaust and World War II. With a few permanent exhibits and others that rotate, there is always something new.

    Wonderful peice of history and such a great way to repurpose an old mall building. Tour guides were clear and loud enough for everyone to hear and participate in the GA history of WWII

  • 5/5 Donna S. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely wonderful history museum, mostly involving various events tied to WWll and the aftermath. Well worth visiting!! This museum is housed in the Continuing Education building at KSU in Kennesaw, GA. Hours are 9-5, M-F. Free for everyone.

    Really nice place we had our convention at. Didn't really experience any of the KSU history.

  • 5/5 Sarah B. 4 years ago on Google
    One of my favorite places at KSU that is open to the public. The main exhibit is best viewed as a tour and is styled like an old WWII bunker. The main exhibit shares an important message about what it means to be a hero, victim, or a bystander. They also host an annual 1940s swing dance to benefit the homeless.

    I’ve been here twice and both times I’ve had a great experience. My family is full of history buffs, and I really enjoyed bringing them to the museum as a fun outing when they were visiting. You can tell there’s been so much work put into the program, and the staff is very knowledgeable & friendly.

    Hi! I personally did not enjoy it much. I went to the museum as a school field trip and they never let us eat. It may have simply been because of it being a school field trip but still. I hope that everyone else has a better experience than me.
