Springfield Armory National Historic Site

Stopped here spontaneously on our way to the Berkshires, and so glad we did! Excellent guide, and everyone on staff was so friendly and knowledgeable. Fascinating collection, beautiful building, sparkling clean and thoughtfully laid out. A real treat, and such a rich part of our state's history! We'd highly recommend it to other homeschool families like us! Thank you!

Wonderful time, Carl was very knowledgeable and gave a great tour. Also enjoyed Susan's presentation of the 1863 Springfield rifle. Great place to visit and learn history. Free entry!

Interesting way to spend an hour or two if this is a topic that interests you. Over the top friendly staff, cute gift shop, National Park stamp station, plenty of parking.
