Chester County History Center reviews
3The Chester County History Center is one of the most incredible Historical Museums and research centers I've ever been to. The scholars and exhibits featured here explore all aspects of American History. The staff is exceptional knowledgable, friendly and invite you into the history. The stunning Museum features installations which capture the imagination and rooted in deep scholarship. Pennsylvania indeed is the Keystone State and the History reflected here is powerfully told here. Specifically Southeastern Pennsylvania holds a unique footprint in the development of our Country: Women's Leadership, the UGRR, Revolutionary War History, Agricultural History, Government, Civil Rights, Religious Freedom. It is a hidden gem.
Wonderful museum exhibits, and the library in particular is a treasure trove for local research. There's a convenient parking garage across the street too, which is nice!
We're really glad we became members. CCHC has developed a really nice program for kids and family. Jenn and Anne are the best and always remember us. They have gone above and beyond to great experiences for my kids. We really appreciated how they give materials for my 8-year-old before a tour to maximize her experience. She says it one of her favorite places to visit.
