Super helpful and respectful when I needed help researching. I say a real treasure. The lady who runs it was so enthusiastic about my little project

Very interesting museum. It's known for the Lincoln flag, the flag that was put under President Lincoln's head after he was shot at Ford's Theater. And that was interesting indeed. The Lenape room was educational. It told the story of the Lenape tribes from their perspective.
The Hiawatha stagecoach was cool too.
Well worth the price of admission, which was only $5. Worth it.

Small, simple museum primarily focused on events that took place in and around Milford, PA, the Delaware Water Gap. Morbid as it might sound, the highlight is seeing the American flag with Abraham Lincoln's bloodstains.

It was a great honor to visit this museum to pay homage to one of our country's greatest presidents- President Abraham Lincoln. There are many interesting artifacts and displays about Lincoln and the assassination of him. The flag stained with his blood was, of course, the main display. There are other historical displays in the building. It's definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Excellent museum. You could spend hours reading the material and looking at the flag that holds President Lincoln's blood from the Ford theater.

This little local museum was well worth $5 for admission. The docent was friendly and informative. The most impressive piece is the 36 star American flag that Lincoln's head rested on after he was shot.

Really neat that the Lincoln flag is there. We waited to be admitted but no one came. It sounded like there was a lot of activity upstairs ‍️

Lots of interesting things. People were ingenious way back when. The flag with President Lincoln's blood on it is there. The tour and the story of the flag were fascinating!
