What a great little museum! It takes about an hour to get through and you learn a lot! It is a smaller place and there is a lot of standing during the tour (some chairs are available for sitting). They are specials for military families and definitely worth the visit!

Great museum with its guided tour which is worth the detour. The story of Joshua Chamberlain and his house is extremely interesting.

I came here yesterday for a tour of Joshua Chamberlain's house, and it was a great experience. Honestly never really knew of him except for his burial site down the road. Our tour guide (Troy) was very knowledgeable, friendly and knew specific details about the house.Overall, Chamberlain seemed like a well-rounded man who had a heart of gold and cared deeply for his country. That I can respect, and I thank him for what he did.“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”― Abraham Lincoln

My wife’s grandfather donated most of the items in the museum. Before you entered there use to be my wife’s grandfather’s name Murray Litchfield on a plaque thanking him. They also told him if he or his family ever want to tour the museum we would get in for free. This is the least they can do. Since most of the items donated came from him. Her family was friends with Chamberlain. Since her grandfather’s death they took down the plaque with his name and have told the family they would have to pay to visit. What a lack of respect to her grandfather and his legacy. My wife’s grandfather could have sold everything for thousands of dollars. Instead he donated it and they can’t even leave a plaque there in his memory.So you leave me a number that has been disconnected.

An amazing historical place to visit of one of the great Civil War soldiers. Many of his personal items are on display. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. Directly from the home is Bowdoin College where Chamberlain was first a student. He later taught at the school and eventually became the President after the war. Around the corner is the cemetery where he is buried.

I was there on Saturday 8/22/22. It was very nice, the lady that took us on the tour of the house was great. I wish that I could have talked more about chamberlain with her, she made me feel very welcome and now I just want to know more about this incredible man. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.Glenn LapointeFrom N.H
