Jill H-WAugust 9, 2013This is only a few blocks from downtown Fredericksburg and an easy walk. In fact, there are no time restrictions for parking in this neighborhood! So park here rather than downtown!

"Great tour. The tour guide/interpreters were outstanding and made the experience so much better. Totally worth the price of admission. You can get a discount with the other museums."
