About this place

Highly Recommended.

Accessible entrance, with an Accessibility Visitor Guide, an Accessibility Cart, Communication Aid, close-captioned with script transcripts for the documentary film Miracle on Ice, and verbal description tours with free reservations. Ample room for multiple wheelchairs which would make this a great tour stop for those with mobility impairments. In our opinion, this facility is a model of accessibility.
