I happen to have a daughter who loves historical places and local history and she thought this was a great experience! The newer Underground Railroad exhibits in the basement were AMAZING! We had a fun time exploring on a rainy day last Summer. We will definitely go there again !

Four floors of high-quality exhibits detailing the early history of Jamestown. I took two 11-year olds and they were enthralled. They had to explore everything. Sparked great conversation.

Fenton, the Fenton History Center connects visitors of all ages to the rich history of the Jamestown area with museum tours, archeological outings, and children's programs.
