The museum exhibit starts from history of the community digs on its Lee Street past which also started the background of The City of Alexandria became a leader in historic preservation. We found a hidden gem that located on the 3rd floor of Torpedo Factory Art Center which provides historical stories in a quaint space. Not only that, it’s also can be an interesting short archeology field trip for certain ages kids. The museum gift shop available as the museum time. Come and check it out, you won’t be disappointed!
Nice, tiny, informative little museum. Good way to kill time if you're on the waterfront.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree
They're good field trip opportunities here. The space is quaint but they accommodate a group of about 15 with activities or a lesson relevant to is architecture and the history of Old Town. I love that its location is in the torpedo Factory surrounded by beautiful art and this creative space! Not to mention if you go there in the morning you can have lunch right on the boardwalk.
Had a quick visit at this museum and able to learn some history of Alexandria. Quite interesting and I will visit again if I had a chance.
Worth a brief visit if you are in the building. Very disappointed that Alexandria’s slave trade history is missing completely.
Interesting but underwhelming. Good to visit if you are in the torpedo factory anyway.
Great place to see the local history.
Interesting artifacts.
Awesome history
