the carl and mary koehler history center印象

A group of us went to see the Curious George travelling exhibit. That was the attraction that drew our attention. However, I was impressed with the kids interactive area. Learned some interesting facts like when instant oatmeal was invented. We also enjoyed the numerous paintings of the Civil War. It was a great place to visit!

While I won't say this is the best museum ever, it is certainly worth a visit. It has interesting exhibits and traveling exhibits that are worthwhile. The people there love what they do and it shows. The kids' area is nice, too. It's the right size for a short stop, to get little kids interested in museums, or to learn about the town. I suggest you give it a shot.

The CR History Center was awesome. If you enjoy history, this place is for you. Great information and at times the center spotlights an area or business or organization. I will be back

I set up a trip for my husband to see this train museum after seeing an ad in the Iowan magazine. While interesting, it's not very large. The rest of the museum was worth a stop and see however. Have a nice kids interactive area it appeared.

Was picking up grandson from local college and had some time to kill, stumbled in to this place and was plesently surpised. This is one of those local gems that is very much worth the time. The have many exhibts that trace the history of the area that are both fun and educational, without being boring. They have one area devoted to a terrible flood they had in 2008, with pictures and videos with many first person interviews that bring the real stories to life The staff was very welcoming and willing to answer you questions. Ther is no charge[ they ask only for a donation]

Cedar Rapids is certainly fortunate to have the History Center. Its collections of Cedar Rapids artifacts and excellent staff make research easy. The displays will certainly attract the younger set. One of the reference staff will also give walking tours of the downtown area to interested groups. I met a person who attended the tour as part of a class reunion and found it to be eye-opening even for a person who had lived in the community for the first seventeen years of life.

The Koehler History Center is a neat little museum with several nice exhibits on the history of Cedar Rapids and local area. It is a free museum with donations accepted. It is located on 1st Ave near Coe College and Mercy Hospital. Its def. worth an hour of your time to learn a little bit about the area.
