Very informative exhibits...models and photographs of early Fredericksburg. Knowledgeable staff. Books and postcards as well. Don't miss the water wheel in the park behind the museum.

When we visited the Pioneer Museum we got a pass to view this place too. Very much worth the $5 value to see both places!

We ran into an old gentleman who shared with us the story of how his family came from Germany and settle in town. Lots of old pictures to see.
