This museum began as a student project, and today its photos, written materials and artifacts take visitors chronologically through the Jewish experience from pre-World War II through post-Nazi liberation. One exhibit is devoted to local Holocaust survivors and their families. An authentic, 10 ton, World War II era railway boxcar sits in the parking lot for visitors to see when it is not traveling as an educational outreach tool. The facility also hosts traveling exhibits related to war and the Holocaust. Opt for a one-hour audio tour or 90-minute guided tour (1 and 2:30 weekdays in season, 1:30 on weekends and in off-season).
