Manchester Historic Association's Millyard Museum — Attraction in Manchester

Manchester's old mill museum. It's part of the first floor of a Mill 3 which was built in 18th century. I was visiting first time, started without having any background of this place but within first 10 minutes the information provided in the museum took my attention and I started getting interested.

When I cross 8th or 10th display I was so impressed with the way the mill was constructed and operated in 17th and 18th century. It's really mesmerizing facts.

All American kids has to visit this place to understand the hard work gone behind constructing today's America.

The steam fire engine and yester year House, photos , market area . Time well spent. Need at least 2 to 3 hours to go through all the displays. If you are in a hurry then an hour is ok.

8$ entry fee for adults. 4$ for kids 12-18 yrs. Worth it! Visit to admire yester years engineering and technology...

There is an available audio tour (which the staff informs you of on check-in) that you can listen to for each exhibit for those who have a hard time reading for whatever reason, which is a nice and surprising feature for such a...

Excellent museum. They have all sorts of information on the history of the city, the many unique communities that have shifted and grown there, and everything you could possibly need to know about textiles.

I would avoid using Groupon to score tickets there, because this nonprofit organization often only receives about 10% of whatever you pay to Groupon. Besides, they also a number of great admissions deals in-house for students, seniors, etc. Would...
