Atlanta History Center Reviews

Nice place . Wedding reception of my Nephews wedding was held here. It was grand

Wonderful location for concert events. Enjoy them very much.

This place is excellent and I bet it worth your each penny. You will see hundreds of old items and the theatre will give you a real experience of the old war .

Extraordinary collection of artifacts with well- displayed exhibits accompanied by interesting and enlightening text summaries. The Civil War gallery was a fabulous and unique perspective. The culture and history of Atlanta area was most informative. A not to be missed museum for history lovers.

Exhibits are amazing, I dont know how anyone can say that this place is not great! They offer so much in a informational setting!

The history center has been converged like the Episcopal church, the Boy Scouts, and many other organizations. In other words it has been taken over by progressive activists with an agenda. Sad to see such a promising organization turn into a sad display of radical left- wing propaganda. Orwellian and embarrassing.

We thoroughly enjoyed all of the exhibits we went to. The Texas locomotive was restored perfectly and the information about it and "The Great Chase" was great. They even had a "engineer" in the cab telling about it and answering questions.

The cyclorama depicting the Battle of Atlanta was restored wonderfully. My only complaint is that the presentation was almost totally about the history of the painting. It was good, but I miss the history lesson of the Battle of Atlanta that I heard as a boy when it was at Grant Park. I wish they had options for two different presentations; history of the painting, and history of the Battle.

The Civil Was exhibit was the best I've seen. There was so much information. Be sure to get the free headsets so you can listen to extra information.

The Swan House is so interesting to go through. Be sure to find a docent and ask questions; you will learn so much more.

The Tully Smith House and other buildings were also well done. Note also that all of the items in this house are "touch friendly".

We didn't have time to see the other exhibits, so we need to go back. The Margaret Mitchell House is also included in the price of admission and you have 9 days to go see it.

Again, everything in this museum is so well done, interesting, and educational.
