Displays were great this place is really big we only went through the first floor and we were there a couple of hours. The price was pretty steep I thought at $14 a ticket for 2 days. I wish they would do $7 for one day instead. If you go on Wednesday the ticket is $7
I understand now why this is a highly-rated attraction. The artifacts from World War I are outstanding. Discounts for tickets are available. We wound up paying $12 for two people. As the tickets are good for two days, it was a very good deal. The view from the tower was good but not impressive. We couldn't believe there were not higher barriers on the observation deck. Glad we didn't have children along.
This is a fantastic tribute to the veterans and the stories of WW I. The exhibits are very interesting and the wok that went into creating this museum should be recognized. I am not very knowledgeable on WW I, but I learned so much from this museum. We were actually there last year during the Big 12 basketball tournament, but decided to go back again this year since we enjoyed it so much. It definitely can be a 2-3 hour tour (as stated by others). The staff are definitely passionate about their jobs, and that makes it even more enjoyable as well.
博物馆的门票是2天14美元。里面有很多关于世界史的信息,非常不错。还有简短的电影,在看照片和事实之前,应该看一下。一定要去圆屋顶。电梯能载你上去;不过,还是要走约45个台阶,这很值得,可以在不同的方位看到KC。
All the exhibits were so interesting. Amazed by the replica of the trenches. Liked the interactive stations.
There are several 'must see' attractions in the greater K.C.area, and the WW I museums is high on my list. It's the only recognized WW I museum in the US and has wonderful old displays of WWI items. It's worth 2-3 hours of your time to watch the video and walk around the displays. For those of you who love history, it's a 'must see'.
First off when you buy your ticket it is good for two consecutive days, you'll need it. Plan your visit for first thing in the till they close, they have a very nice restaurant inside, and finish the second day. Not only do they an amazing collection of weapons, Canon's,vehicles, and documents, but a research area as well if you are interested in finding someone from that timeline. Other than the main floor, their is no handicapped accessibility. However it would have taken me two days to see everything on the main floor anyway and it was still worth the small cost of admission.
只是美国唯一一个一战博物馆,可以花上半天时间,但只会让你还想再来。展品布置的很好,展览设计的会让你感觉置身于壕沟战,还有照片和一些短影片介绍一战始末,让观众对一战概况有全面的了解。你可以知道一战的结束实际上导致了不到一个世纪后的二战的爆发。并不是评判或者用过于学术的方法,但只是讲述展开整个欧洲和中东地区的战争事实、场景、人们和地点,可以让你有自己的想法结论,以及一战所带来的影响,也许还会思考世界的安全民主问题。
I didn't have great prospective on WWI. This experience changed that. Exhibit/Museum well done and informative.
A very interactive museum with artistic presentations. Enjoyed by my Tweens as well as my history-loving husband and myself, the nonhistorian. The food is good there too. We enjoyed the Trench Soup served as it would have been in the trenches.
