Finally got to our local historical museum and was very pleased. There are many interesting exhibits but I missed a few as it was Christmas time & a great deal of space was given over to that. I shall go back soon to see it at a regular time of year when all their regular exhibits are on display. They have many fascinating things and the train-room is a MUST!

Cool place and a must for everybody visiting Bowling Green. The grounds are better to walk with a a baby than a city park. The people who take care of the museum are doing a great job!

A beautiful spot that any photographer will enjoy. The grounds offer numerous photo opportunities from the stone fence, a garden, a log cabin and a pretty porch. The museum itself is located in a lovely mansion and offers a variety of exhibits and history of NW Ohio.

It is a worthwhile trip. The stories we were told were interesting. Not much more I can say except it was fun for the family.

The site of the original workhouse and home for the indigent and criminally insane has an updated museaum, tours, a graveyard, beautiful herb gardens. You can tour the museaum for a few bucks, which is well worth it.

Overall, this is a really cool museum. Walking around it allows you to get a really good idea of all the history. The museum has so many rooms and various exhibits as well. The jar of fingers was probably one of the creepiest things I have ever seen. This place is definitely worth a visit if you are in the area or just passing through.

This museum is located in the former Wood County infirmary for the mentally ill. It provides a variety of displays, including a jar of disembodied fingers. The museum offers special events, too.

This is a wonderful museum to visit. During the month of December they have it decorated for the holidays and it is beautiful!
