This is an alright historical landmark to take a tour of. Lots of great history in this building dating back to the founding of our nation. I think the Capitol building itself is a much better tour - and it's right down the street. (Though, it's not as old nor more historically significant. But the architecture is better.)The Museum of Curiosities housed in the building is downright weird. A taxidermied two-headed cow? What? WHY?The Wadsworth is right next door and it is vastly superior as far as museums go. (I do realize that these are two different kinds of museums, but if you are looking to enrich your brain, and you only have time to visit one of them, the Big W is the way to go. No freak cows, you know?)
There is a lot of cool history that you can learn here. I liked that they had a double headed pig here.
Really loved that place with its history, old court and interesting exhibition on the ground floor. Also employee was so nice, told us everything we might need to know and also helped with advices on our next stop.
So much better than I'd hoped! Brought 3 kids under 8 and planned for maybe an hour but there was so much fun stuff to do and see that we had to make them leave after 2 hours. Love that they only charge for kids over 6yrs old.
Wonderful place to visit with always more layers to it than meets the eye. Long a centerpiece of Hartford and the state of Connecticut, this modest building packs in more exhibits and history than any single tour could cover. The tours are information-filled to be sure, and they leave you with your head buzzing and an appetite to learn more. The OSH is continually evolving, incorporating new historical facts, adapting to new audience perspectives and needs, and introducing new programs and ways of experiencing history that the modern visitor will find relevant and provocative.
