Amazing modern exhibits with plenty of interaction. We liked how there were different segments of the museum to attract various audiences. With a prehistoric section Featured some amazing dinosaur skeletons. There were also some wonderful Texan history exhibits.

Plenty of space for cars and buses. The free parking aspect is great. There is also some benches for picnics and beautiful foliage. It's close to the battle trail, but a little bit of a walk to the visitor center.

Somewhat mixed emotions. Lots of relatively new exhibits with amazing items. Heavy emphasis on women and african american slavery, as well as a few families from Concord. "Presentism" in Interpretation is a serious issue, because facts matter.

Fun quiet place with great staff. This is a location that is in the city center but just off the touristic areas. Interesting and underrepresented history of Texas and San Antonio.

FREE ADMISSION and close free parking across the street. This is the home of Louisa May Alcott and Nathaniel Hawthorne at different times in their lives but it is also the home of other authors and is an original witness house for the Revolutionary War battles of Lexington and Concord. Of course the home has had additions and modifications over the ages but it is possible to go on a tour led by National Park Service rangers. On the days when the house is open there are people who portray the residents. There is also a small visitor center and gift shop. Nextdoor is there is another Alcott family home which is also good but admission is charged.
