Fort Walla Walla Museum

I enjoyed this place so much! I love history, especially about the area I live. There are over 20 buildings to see and more artifacts than you can count. It's focus is the history of the Walla Walla area from when the first settlers arrived until the 1960's. The agricultural achievements, interacting with Indian tribes from all over Eastern Washington, to the forming of the original government, it's all here. There are video interactive displays. ( Do the one for the penitentiary!) My favorite part was the Pioneer village. A collection of real buildings that were donated to, and moved to the museum. They are so cool! Hard to imagine living in such small places! I grew up in, and still live in the Pacific Northwest. My dad took me to every museum and dam we could find. I did the same with my daughter. Places like this create lifelong family memories. I highly recommend it. Admission prices are $12 adult. $10 senior or student. $5 kids 6-12. Free kids 5 and under.
