Gustavo de Almeida Salvato: Adorei esse lugar! O acervo do museu é ótimo, com uma boa variedade de veículos de diferentes épocas e que lutaram em diferentes guerras. Os veículos são muito bem preservados e tudo é muito bem organizado. Existem apresentações interativas muito boas. Pessoal do museu é muito simpático e atencioso. Banheiros limpos, estacionamento gratuito no local e loja de suvenir. Altamente recomendado! Reserve ao menos 3 horas para uma boa visita.

Whit Green: Just an all around wonderful experience. My son drove the Sherman, and they treated him so kindly. The museum itself is so well put together and the collection is top notch. Can’t wait to go back.

Marcus Lip: Truly a magnificent museum! The entertaining tour of the trench experience and the short videos were marvelous. Their extensive collection of tanks and war artifacts really intrigued me, with a detailed description of all the tanks and their history. Their team were also really pleasant and skillful. They answered my questions with ease in a kind way. Considering my passion for history(particularly world war history), this was truly the best museum I have ever been to. You won't regret going to this museum, even if you don't like history at all. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Paul O'Mara: Every museum curator should visit the American Heritage Museum. This is hands-down the most cohesive, exhilarating museum experience I have had in the past 20 years. The entrance room alone was more informative than many 'world class' museums I have visited, and the staff were deeply knowledgeable, friendly and very engaging.The first thing I noticed was a scale model of a war machine imagined and designed by none other than Leonardo da Vinci. There were excellent, easy-to-read placards which conveyed large amounts of information in a few sentences (unlike this author). This clean, direct, concise experience immediately raised my expectations significantly.. and the professionally produced films & immersive audio visual experience in the introduction rooms (there are 3) delivered what I had always hoped for from museums, but had never seen come together before.A+ for amazing experience. I dragged my 8 & 12 yo kids here, and about 5 minutes into the experience, they were suddenly super interested, and seemed to enjoy it almost as much as I did!This is a MUST VISIT museum. Make the trip.

Noa Remi: The American Heritage Museum was a great experience, made even better by volunteer Bill Rose. He was extremely passionate and knowledgeable of all the exhibitions and made learning interactive. We didn’t have time to see everything but will definitely be coming back!Wait time No wait Price for adult entry $16–20 …More

Deveka Bhardwaj: Very educational museum!! Friendly and welcoming staff, all around the museum!!There is a scavenger hunt that kids can play on paper while walking around the exhibits. I highly recommend that for families with kids, my 9yr old enjoyed it and made him pause and actually read things. We will definitely revisit again! Nice collection of tanks!

Julia Lemieux: Absolutely amazing experience. The staff is knowledgeable and fascinating to listen to. Bill Rose and Kent went out of their way to give my group a truly immersive experience. Showed us the inside of one of the tanks and even got to try on body armor. Highly recommended! Will definitely be returning for the special event weekends!

Nicoletta de Rege: Impressive collection - on par with other national museums across the country. It’s so common for private collections to have one-of-a-kind artifacts or collection items but for these items to be on display to the public - so very cool! I’m thankful the collection is publicly available and it’s local.Our experience was excellent from start to finish! The museum has a clearly marked “suggested” path visitors can follow to showcase how these armored machines have transitioned over the years. Entering the exhibit, you will have an included video introduction with a 4D snippet (think rumbling ground and flashing lights). I was impressed that this was included & considered part of the experience (does not charge extra to go through).Big shout out to the staff who were friendly, knowledgeable and not condescending! We had the opportunity to meet one of the lead education material developers; he was a super nice guy!All and all, we spent about 4 hours here. It was a great place to spend an afternoon! Looking on their calendar, there seems to be lots of fun community events, presentations from veterans at a reasonable price. I got the impression that the museum is family oriented and all about honoring those who have served. I can really get behind that.

JS O'Connor: A surprisingly large collection of US Army artifacts from World War I to present day is on display across two galleries here. Really neat to get so close to things that people who were destined for the Western Front in 1917 would have used.Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Not sure …More

Joel Corriveau: We got to tour the museum and was awesome to see all the old military stuff. Thought the portable xray machine was very cool to see!

larry ciummo: The museum consists of two rooms, one by time and one of general militaria of various era from WW 2 to 2000's. The free admission includes a tour by a knowledgeable docent who has collected much of the militaria himself. There also is a small souvenir shop and a very large collection of military books and some fairly rare items for sale at very good prices. You can spend between 30 minutes to an hour here, plus the time to browse the extensive book stores.

Julian Quintero Rodriguez: everybody should go there!

Bob Lindgren: Lots of cool stuff

Michael/Dawn Welch: Husband and I met while stationed at Fort Devens 30 years ago, before it was decommissioned. We appreciated our guide, Jim, who was very knowledgeable and walked us through the history of the exhibit - very personable. Interesting collection of items; fascinating background for each section. Well worth the hour or two it took to walk through. The staff did a nice job; we're glad we made time to visit, thank you!

Mary Douglass: Was freezing cold thru a long winter of frozen roads n ice and just plain cold.

Pat Hardin: Served at Fort Devens in the seventies so I have to give it five stars.

Joyce Mundt: The Fort Davens Museum is a great place to spend several hours learning about the Fort and its history from WWI to the present day. The exhibits are put together well, and the tour guides are well informed.

Arianna Benassi: I am new in Massachusetts and I appreciated so much this visit. The lovely man that toured us was very kind and he gave us a lot of informations about the whole area of Fort Devens. The museum is not big but very interesting. Visiting these kind of places is the best way to keep History alive. The whole Fort Devens is a very nice and interesting visit to do!

Lyle Wheeler: There is a lot of donated artifacts from both world wars at the museum. Guides are very knowledgeable, and answer any questions you may have and you set the pace you want to go through museum. It was an hour well spent.

Aurelian Ardashir: One of my new favorite museums.

Lee D: I went for the Veterans Day weekend exhibit. I heard a good lecture and perused the displays. Interesting stuff and friendly museum members!

Donna Mitchell: Lots of military memorabilia in several rooms. Video of the history of Fort Devens. They need more space and they need to be a lot better organized into distinct periods and wars. The items need to be better labeled, though if they were organized by periods it wouldn't be quite so necessary. They have a map of Fort Devens with the locations of the cemetery, many historic buildings and a few other sites. Since I had never been to Fort Devens before, I drove around to see all the sites. The cemetery location was not quite correct on the map, and most of the buildings were not labeled with any signage tio indicate their former use, though that is not the museum's fault. Considering the many buildings which are vacant, it is a pity that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts won't provide something more suitable for the museum while they are hoping for better-paying tenants to come along. Since the museum is free and staffed by volunteers, they obviously can't afford a high rent. Fundraising and lobbying by veterans groups might help.

TRUE CRIME WITH TERRAFULLSIGHT,& EVERYTHING ELSE!: Great place to visit learning the history! Of our great military!! Past & present!

Paula J Cronin: Very interesting place, I bet most people around the area either knows or knew someone who was stationed at Fort Devens.

Brian Hood: I always love going to visit the Fort Devens Museum. The folks there are full of knowledge and are willing to share it with the visitors. Today, I learned some things about Fort Devens that I didn't know. Stop by and visit. If you get hungry, stop by the Devens Grill.
