Awesome museum detailing how almost 1000 refugees were given safe haven during WW2. Very interesting and informative.
This museum describes the little known events of bringing about 1000 people who fled WWII concentration camps to come to the US on President Roosevelt's order. Charitable events to help and closed-minded actions both happened. It's history that most people have not heard.
Small but filled with great info. The only place in our country that helped persecuted Jews. A real eye opener. Some very accomplished people from that group of 1000 or so.....
A very small, but extremely well done museum which highlights a little known piece of WW2 history. Well worth the trip!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Small museum. Better for adults, I would skip bringing a child under maybe 12. I would definitely recommend though.
A wonderful place that we sought to visit. I came with family who are descendants of a couple that were brought to this country and here. We had read the book "Haven", which details the little known story. The employee on duty was a young woman who was outstanding in her knowledge and sensitivity. We all learned more and really enjoyed the displays. I loved seeing the Motorcycle groups that had contributed to this project. What a nice surprise.
Carla was excellent introducing us to the exhibits and providing an overview of the entire site.Wait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$1–5
My experience with my daughter and 3 of my grandchildren was not very good. The volunteer was not at all helpful. He didn't even ask us to sign in or offer us a pen. Just took our money and went back to the office. We were on our own from there. He did not turn on any of the t.v. screens or music and I had to finally go ask him to turn on the video in the little theatre section. I feel this is unacceptable when you pay to get the entire experience. There should also be a few benches to sit on since it all walking and reading. So sad there are no artifacts from the refugees. Most of everything there you could Google on your own.
No One There! This museum advertised being open seven days a week from Memorial Day through Labor Day from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.. It's stated on their website and on the property. So we deliberately delayed our return trip to WDC in anticipation it would be open. Well, we showed up at 11:05 a.m. on June 8 Sa and the place was locked up and completely shuttered. We tried the doors including a side door with a buzzer. Nothing. Complete silence. So, make sure you call in advance to ensure someone will be there. It has the vibe that it may be closed for good.
One of the most important museums in New York. I've been on a few tours. Great staff.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entryFree
