cherokee heritage museum and gallery

The museum provided lots of history regarding the Cherokee people, and was an easy walk through. I think children would be very bored, as there are no interactive displays, and a lot of reading at each section.

The Museum of the Cherokee Indian in Cherokee, NC is very well thought out and presents a contiguous, easy to navigate historical storyline in the facility's layout. The gift store has an extensive collection of books and resources for the researcher. Special arrangements can also be made to visit the museum's archives and conduct research.

This is an enjoyable museum of the history of the Cherokee Indians. It is well maintained and nicely executed. It gives you a good in site to the past and future of the Cherokee Tribe. Take the time to stop and take a look.

This was an experience, telling the story of and the stories from the Cherokee Indians, there are some hands on exhibits, some spoken words as well as textual displays, very interesting historical facts provided alongside exhibits.

The museum was very educational in its portrayal of the history of not only the Eastern Cherokees, but also the American Indians as well.

I took my 12 year old grandson to the museum. The content of the museum is detailed and very informative. There are some very interesting displays but what I found is that much of it is very intense in text - not necessarily something that holds the attention of many young ones. I made sure my grandson read the details so that he knew why we were there and was exposed to the history of Cherokee Nation.

This was such an interesting venue to go through. There is a lot of history and a tremendous learning experience. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

This museum is very well done. The history of the Cherokee was fascinating and the museum started the history dated back thousands of years ago. We enjoyed hearing the stories about creation. The museum also did a good job in the Trail of Tears section by recording readings from witness accounts of the events.

A great learning experience. Really enjoyed it. Can't beleive I got my husband to a museum and he loved it.

This is one of the best First Nation museum's we have visited. At reception we were lucky enough to meet Jerry Wolfe a full-blood Cherokee who was on a landing craft on D-Day, living history indeed. The journey through the museum starts with the birth of the Cherokee Nation and then charts their history through to the modern day. With everything you see and read you gain an insight into a culture and a philosophy on life that should never be forgotten.

In depth history of the Cherokee nation. Reading about the history and finding other information that I had not known about was very interesting. I enjoy learning about history and this was a great place to better understand what the Cherokee Nations history was all about.

This place is very interesting, you see how the Indians evolved, and how they were treated through the years. It makes you feel good about the things we have today

My wife and I took our 6 year old grandson and we all had a very enjoyable experience. I highly recommend the Cherokee Heritage Museum to anyone interested in the history of the Native Americans. I am part Cherokee and find the museum very tastefully done. It took us a couple hours to walk thru and digest the material. After touring the museum we spent some time in the gift shop looking at books and artwork.

This museum gave us a better understanding of the struggles the Cherokee Indians have gone through over the years. It was very enlightening. The folks there were very helpful and friendly. A must see when in Cherokee.

I went there about two weeks ago and had an ok experience . The art and info were displayed beautifully, so that wasn't the problem. When I was buying the tickets, the sign on the desk said it was $10 for adults and $6 for kids. I didn't notice until after I had left there that they had charged me $20 more. I bought 2 adult tickets and 1 kid ticket, making the total $26. They charged me $46. I was very disappointed with this. It wasn't so much the money but the way in which they did this. I felt cheated. The museum itself was beautiful, but with service like that, I wouldn't go again.
