Very interesting small modern museum about inhabitants of Ohio a long long time ago. I got tired out before I was able to finish reading and listening to everything. I plan to return and continue at the point the Spaniards showed up. The museum building is located right in the midst of these ancient mounds. Fascinating.
Fort Ancient is a great place for families. The museum is interesting for a variety of ages. The hiking paths were a little overgrown, so wear hiking shoes so everyone feels comfortable in the longer grass. The Ohio History Connection pass can be purchased here and it allows visitors free access for a year to over fifty museums and historical sites in Ohio. Make sure to ask for a passport so you can get stamps at each site that you visit.
Beautiful, well maintained, clean. Great museum & staff. We had a great day. We can't wait to go back.
Awesome Museum that explains, respectfully, almost a thousand years of native history. There's also wonderful trails through the woods and a nearby spur of the 78-Mile Trail along the Little Miami River. If you're in a hurry, you could do the museum in an hour but you really should give it half a day to see the films and read all the exhibits.
Beautiful place to visit! The museum was very informative. The employee's were very nice and knowledgeable. They have a cute little gift shop. We went for a walk/hike on the trails and thoroughly I enjoyed it. The trails were very neat with beautiful views of the surrounding landscape. The picnic areas were very nice and clean as well.
