DeBence Antique Music World
Museum
👍👍 Very interesting place. Lots of history- Beautiful large music boxes and instruments many people do not know about. Plenty of old pieces that they play for you. Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. I recommend this and call prior to get a tour. The basement and second floor are at your own pace.

👍👍 We were there tonight for the dedication ceremony for Capt. Thomas Mantell Day. Afterward, my husband and I walked through and looked at the exhibits. He remarked how it felt alive.

👍👍 I had a great experience at this museum. Locally run institutions like this should be supported. Susan gave me a tour of the place and answered a series of questions I had about Italian miners (I asked a lot). She even recommend locations outside of the museum that I could check out. If I ever find...
