One of the best collection of women's history ever. The women's outside water wall is outstanding. Makes us proud to be American's and the great contributions of our women. More

Spent about 2.5 hours here Saturday. Toured the visitor center with excellent exhibits detailing not just the 1848 convention in Seneca Falls, but the entire women's rights movement through suffrage and the 19th amendment up to today (there's still work to be done for true equality). Ranger Megan took us next door to the Wesleyan Church/meeting hall where the convention... More

I loved our visit to the park. It was quite interesting to see all the exhibits in the visitor center, along with a short movie about the women's rights movement that began here. We were happy to see the inside of the convention building next to the visitor center and learn about the women (and men) who were so passionate... More

I visited as part of a school trip and was so very pleasantly surprised. Living in Rochester, NY, one would think Susan B Anthony carried the entire woman's suffragette movement on her own. Our guide was amazing-had so many storied to tell. A "secret" tip- if you arrange ahead of time, the guide will take you to some local homes... More

Worthwhile to see if you're in the area, but I myself would not make a special trip just to see this National Site. Lots a displays. A few statues. And a cool inscription of the declaration of womens' rights on a wall outside the building in the garden. I read it and was impressed with it. More

We've taken our daughters, ages 17, 10 & 7. Our 10 year old, who is a big history buff, also returned with her Girl Scout troop. She really appreciated all the things the women before her went through to get her to where she is now. Much of the site was over the head of my 7 year old, but... More

My kids and I spent a couple of hours at the Women's Rights National Historical Park and very much enjoyed it. It's a good learning experience for children and inspiring to learn of how so many have fought the good fight for women's rights that shouldn't be taken for granted. The exhibits are pretty low-tech, but that's fine, and the... More

Great learning experience for the entire family - truly good information on the struggle for women to gain what are now accepted as rights for all - older children appreciate more than toddlers or early elementary age More
