What visitors say
First visit. Like a museum of natural history.In addition, has a room dedicated to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles along with an arcade machine. The Hale Museum also open to the public. Unfortunately the Garrison was closed. Nice garden…
The staff were interactive and motivated, interesting variety of items on display. They have a garrison house on display, first that I have seen. Learned that teenage mutant Ninja turtles were created in the area!
It was a great place to explore. I was unaware of the rich history of small town NH. And they have a really great tribute to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles which originated right there in Dover!
