My husband and I went here because my father & his grandfather served in the Korean War. This was a nice tribute to the war. I enjoyed seeing it, and reading about the history the man working there was nice and helpful.

I spent a year in Korea back in 1966. Seeing the photo's on the walls and much of the memorobilia in glass cases took me back. I still don't know how a war was fought in those mountains near the DMZ. Not one of my favorite places but got a lot out of it while I was there, especially how much I am thankful for living in the USA.

Right downtown Springfield on the historic square - near the Old State Capital, Lincoln-Herndon Law Offices, the Hilton, the A Lincoln Presidential Museum and Library and so much more. Many artifacts and interesting things to see.

Hard to believe this would be a good museum since it is a store front in Downtown Springfield, but it was very informative and moving experience. The gentleman who greeted us upon entering was very helpful in giving us some background and other information. With my father over in Korea and a close friend fighting during the war, this was a must stop. Lots of information that a lot of people don't know about the Korean conflict. I'm hoping that this museum helps open the eyes of those who know very little and helps to make sure this is the forgotten war no more. If you are an emotional person, I can guarantee that when you read the letter a soldier wrote home to his mother and then the official notice that the mother received upon her son's death, you will lose it. I was crying like a baby when I read that and could only imagine the heartbreak of the mother. Everyone should go and learn about this war. There is really no excuse....it's right Downtown across from the Old Capitol and it's free.

A volunteer Korean War veteran met us upon our entry. He showed us a map of North and South Korea and explained the strategy used by the UN forces. Interesting and informative. It gave us a greater appreciation for the sacrifices given by those who served in this war.

As a Korean War combat veteran I found it interesting. This is a national museum and is inits growing stage. They need more displays and movies etc. The library is excellent for research and I urge them to put them online for all to share.

Lots of information. However, temperatures within museum were cold, which made us pick up the pace and not stay as long as we might have.

Visiting family and found this museum while walking downtown. We all enjoyed the museum, especially my dad who is a Korean War Veteran. Please take time to visit and see how the veterans of the Korean war fought.

It took us about half an hour to go through this (at a decent pace). It's not big, but it is filled with a lot of really good history. It doesn't seem to be as busy as some other attractions, which is a real shame.

Found this museum by accident but I was glad we checked it out. Very well thought out display of Korean War memorabilia. No charge to see the museum but a suggested donation will certainly help the museum add to their collection. I'm a history buff and I learned a lot.
