homesteads tower museum印象

A small museum that offered a quick look back into the 30"s. The housing was similar to homes for humanity that are build now a days. It is a two part ticket that gets you into a homestead house about 1.5 miles away. Both places had people who could answer questions. We enjoyed ourselves.

We knew nothing about the Depression-era homesteaders program but it turns out that there were four sites in our state of NC: We just had to go to TN to learn about it! The Cumberland Homestead museum is a small museum with the little touches that help bring history alive. The enthusiastic guide / volunteer during our visit enjoyed telling the story of the place and welcomed our questions. Be sure to visit the preserved homestead house nearby as well as the Cumberland park with its CCC-built stone bridge.

Guide was nice, but a little unorganized in her presentation. The homestead house was closed, which was a shame. The tower was a steep climb, but the view was beautiful.

History from The New Deal era of American history, you can view photo's, documents, and tour a home of Americans who worked that period of history, the cost is $4.00 so a real bargin

Great food, entertainment, and crafts at the Festival. Luckily one of the hosts , Miss Betty, gave us lots of extra information which we would not have learned from just the exhibit. The Homestead House was not open during the Festival but she invited us to visit there the following Tuesday..which we did. The whole area is a national treasure!!!

If you want to learn more about the Crossville and Cumberland County area, check this place out. The museum is located in 4 rooms connected to an old water tower. One room is the office/gift shop. Another room holds framed photographs of the area, another room holds various artifacts and the final room has seating in front of a TV set where you will watch a short video about the history of the area and the "New Deal". This room also has artifacts and many documents. If you want to learn more about some of the stone covered homes in the Homestead area of Cumberland County and learn more about the Cumberland County State Park and the Dam there - check this place out.

It is a small, but charming museum, and is very informative of what it was like during and after the Depression for rural people. There is a short film, and you can climb the stone water tower. There is a Homestead house that is part of the museum that you can visit also. Be sure to see the bridge at Cumberland Park, which was also built by the same men who built the homestead houses, school and museum.

Liked seeing this museum and Homestead House. Lots of history here. Nice video on entrance.it would be nice if they discussed post WWII.

This is a small structure but includes a nice array of historical memorabilia. Volunteers are knowledgeable. A pleasant short stop.

The tour guide was great and had amazing backgound details to share. The video was educational and even kept the boys attention (age 9 & 10) Only problem was the time of year--BEES were abundant and seemed to like the tower. It was hard to get good photos up in the tower--but, if you open a window you are probably going to get stung.
