What a wonderful place! The displays of carriages, cars, saddles and more were amazing. The layout of the museum was very open and easy to view the displays. And with the many informative plaques throughout, one can learn so many interesting facts and the history behind each item. Definitely worth a visit! The museum is free and they will validate your parking in Broadmoor garage for one and a half HR free!

Great little museum. Would be nice if there was a bit more, but they've done a great job with the space. Also it's free! They do pack in a lot of information into it.
