motts military museum

From indian arrowheads through the civil war, WW1, WW2, Vietnam to the present, I highly recommend tho museum. I am not a history buff, but thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Very dedicated staff.

I went there with my six year old son. He absolutely loved it! There were a few exibits to hide from him and a section was under construction during our visit, however a gentleman showed a group of us into the first half and was very knowledgeable on the history and super friendly. The house out back was also amazing and the tour guide knew his facts and again very friendly. The day we visited there was a group of Veterans and one of them gave a child friendly version of events to my son who was in awe. Everyone was absolutely friendly from the staff to the visitors! I know the museum looks small but it was full of amazing things and the warm atmosphere makes me keep going back!

Frankly, Mott's Military Museum doesn't look like much from the outside. But looks can be deceiving. The interior is larger than one would expect, and it is filled with military memorabilia from our nation's many wars. The collection is impressive, having both breadth and depth. It captured and kept my attention. Indeed, I stayed much longer than planned. And even so, I plan to go back, as there is far too much to absorb in just one visit.It is obvious that all involved with the museum deeply care about preserving and sharing the nation's military history, and honoring those who have served. Speaking of whom, if you have the time make it a point to talk with one or more of the volunteers. The ones I met were all veterans. They are friendly and knowledgeable, will point out interesting artifacts you might miss otherwise, and share historical trivia and stories that make the events associated with the museum's collection come to life. Well worth the $5.00 admission fee and whatever time you are able to invest.

Wow! My husband and I are both museum/history buffs, and for $5.00 this place is worth way more than that! Motts has a plethora of military memorabilia - starting from the civil war onward. I was also impressed by the volunteers and their vast knowledge! The vast amount of items will definitely hold your attention! Make sure to visit the replica of the Eddie Rickenbacker home, which is located beyond the aircraft/other military vehicles out back. A fantastic place, would visit again!

No where will you get to see an array of military history like motts military museum. You can meet the vets that fought, and see the equipment they used from tanks to planes even the weapons. Warren Mott is passionate about making this museum a treasure for all and to honor those who have their lives.

A very impressive inventory of very unique artifacts dating from the beginning of American military history to current operations. Take advantage of the knowledgeable volunteers. They can help you understand the significant and uniqueness of their collection. If you are going in a group, request a tour. It is well worth your time!

The care and detail, the stories told, and the feelings stimulated leave one to wonder... What is man thinking? How did we come to create such uniforms, tools, weapons, maps, et al. MOST IMPRESSIVE

Mr. Mott has done a remarkable job - there is a truly amazing collection of items on display in a relatively small space. We took our two high-school age grandsons there on an outing and weren't sure how interested they'd be [although they had checked out the website - which is very nice, by the way - first]. They were very interested, appreciative and respectful and gave each display careful attention. Later, they both thanked us for taking them there. It was handy having "young eyes" with us, because [and this is my only criticism], the displays are packed and some of the descriptive cards are difficult to read due to distance from the glass and lighting issues. I would say that unless a child is really interested in history, this wouldn't be suitable for a child under 12 or so, but adults and serious teens would definitely appreciate it. Allow at least two hours - preferably more - for your visit.

This is a little place off of south Hamilton Road. It is small but they have TONS of military items on display from weapons, to uniforms, and everything on between. There are even some military vehicles in the back that you can look at. It was 5.00 to get in and look at all the stuff. Worth it I thought. It take about 1/2 hour - 45 mins to check everything out.

This museum is the work of one man who has pulled together a collection of military artifacts from the Civil War to todays battles in Afghanistan and Iraq. To view it is like rummaging through an old trunk that has been stored away in the attic for over fifty years. Each piece has a story behind it. Go out back and you will find some of the heavy stuff, the mobile howitzers, choppers, etc. An off-road attraction worth visiting.

The number and variety of objects there was amazing. Surprising new additions were the 9/11 items (including a firetruck). The volunteers were often retired military personnel who bring to life the stories with their own interesting details. I was pleasantly surprised at how much they have!

AWESOME, Mott's Military Museum is spectacilar, wonderful, amazing and very very interesting. Anything to do with our Military Men & Women that serve us is worth100% percent worth going to visit and go and enjoy.Mott's Museum Me and my family loved this place did not want to leave at all.WONDERFUL.MUST go and fall in love with this amzing museum.Loved it and would go back 100% percent.THANK YOU to all our wonderful and amazing Military men and women who have protected and served.Thank You

This is a little off the beaten path, but it is a classic example of one man trying to retain as much of physical history as possible. It's a great place to go to remember and honor the past.

This man has a passion! This is Warren Motts' personal collection he has amassed over his lifetime. You will be amazed at the variety of items he has!

This great museum is full of facts and visual aids. So much to see and tons of stuff to keep even an active childs attention.
