Reviews of National Churchill Museum (Museum)

Stev !

This place was kind of sad. It was nice and well maintained for sure, but it just seemed like they were patting themselves on the back because a drunkard who lived 80 years ago showed up one time. Overall it was just too expensive for what they offered.

Hidden gem! Very good museum

Zach Rubin

This museum is like a TARDIS - much bigger on the inside. Indeed, the basement part - where most of the informational exhibits are - was much larger than expected and very comprehensive. If you're interested in the life of Winston Churchill, I'm sure you'll feel sated after visiting this museum.

A bit out of the way Aurora's going out of the way quite educational and a really nice people there as well good exhibit good Museum glad I went

Susan Smith

A great day trip from the Kansas City area. So much amazing and interesting history in Fulton! The museum below the church provides so much information. It was very well done. The church is magnificent and the story of how it came to Fulton is anything but boring. The art created by Churchill's granddaughter from 8 sections of the Berlin Wall is moving and a beautiful way for her to honor her grandfather.

Robert Rogers

Fantastic

Clifford Olsen

Always a great place to visit.

Kathy Nelson

I had no idea that a museum of such high quality existed so close to home. Very impressive!

B Painter

A piece of history that everyone should be remind of in these current times. Great for tweens.

Andy Nordin

Being a huge Churchill fan I am quite biased. But this odd combination of a church and a Churchill museum rekindled my admiration for the man who as a young man was thought of as a failure more than anything, then an adventurer, another failure, and then became the Savior of the Kingdom before stopping here in Fulton in 1946 to warn us about the Iron Curtain of Stalinist Communism. Definitely worth stopping to see if you are a Churchill enthusiast.

Scott Haas

I'd known Churchill gave his "iron curtain" speech in Fulton, MO but didn't know there was a museum dedicated to the man until I was looking up something else in Google maps. The museum is in the undercroft of a medieval church, the history of which is just as interesting as the museum. The museum covers Churchill's life from beginning to end and is well worth the visit for any history buff. One section is dedicated to the speech with it playing on a continuous loop. The story of how he came to give a speech in the middle of America is proof that it's not what you know but who you know and interesting by itself. There exhibits are very informative with lots of artifacts. There is, as of June 9, 2018, an exhibit of Churchill busts and WWII posters.

Skeeter Biltswitch

Great and informal tour given by Suzy.

Matthew Williams

Very informative. Any lover of history should visit for this unique perspective on WW2. The church is such a fascinating part of history it's worth the trip. You would have to travel to Europe to find a building this old and steeped with history.

Jan Zuke

I can't say enough about this place. It has everything, and a delightful, knowledgeable staff. The recordings of BBC broadcasts from WWII brought me to tears, as did the film. This is where Churchill delivered his historic "Iron Curtain" speech. Did you know he is the only person to have been made an honorary American citizen? They have a scratchy film of the speech, many artifacts, really engaging exhibits, some of his paintings (he was a talented Impressionist on top of everything else), a chunk of the Berlin Wall turned into thought-provoking sculpture by his granddaughter, also an artist. And there is a beautiful Christopher Wren church, bombed in the Blitz, brought brick by brick from London and restored here. This is so worth the trip. Fulton is a nice little town with good B & Bs and restaurants, and it's close to beautiful Rocheport and bustling Columbia. Spend the weekend -- you won't be sorry.

shaun Mcdonald

Awesome , the church was sent here from England after ww2 , it was bombed by the German luftwaffe , it was sent here brick by brick and reassembled .

Julie Glenn

Interesting! Love the history of the museum and especially the church

M Moore

tremendous collection

Barbara Baker

Interesting history on Churchill and movie The Church from its original place in England to Missouri. Outside is a huge portion of the Berlin Wall... well-worth a side trip to this unique little town and it's offerings..

Robert Caldwell

Well worth the stop to see the chapel and Churchill war museum. Fulton is a nice-looking, quaint town with a charming Westminster College campus. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff with a chair lift assist to overcome the stairway.

LT Gardner

affordable and worth your time. Do not miss the church.

Chad Hecktor

A well-kept and visually dazzling museum. Great linear account of Churchill's life and events surrounding it. The church is beautiful.

Rachel Wilson

Really interesting museum. Adult visit was just around $9. Museum personnel were very friendly. Make sure to take the time to explore outside as well. The church is beautiful and the 6 sections of Berlin wall are just outside to the left of where you would enter.

Ryan Smith

We have been to the Imperial War Museum and Churchill War Rooms museum in London.. We drove through Fulton just to see this museum, too.. I didn't know what to expect but we were VERY impressed!! One of the better museums we have visited, well done and informative. If you are remotely interested in Churchill - highly recommended!

cornellia williams

Great history

Amber Christenson

Great place to learn more about history.

Andrew Lubatti

We really enjoyed that will probly go back sometime

Ben Vega

Hours are somewhat restrictive (closes at 430 so PLAN AHEAD). However it does feature 8 sections of the Berlin wall wish is very very cool, especially considering this is the location where Winston Churchill delivered his Iron Curtain speech.

Sean SNELDER

terrible

jose Negron

Incredible, lots of things that I didn't know

Tim Berneche

Wow, quite an unexpected gem! I was told by a relative in nearby Columbia to check out the college next door and it's chapel. Passing through Easter Sunday I didn't expect the museum to be open but it was! Never would I had dreamed that a Christopher Wren church was relocated to mid Missouri, amazing. The Churchill Museum in its basement was a fascinating overview of Churchill and his significance which included a viewing room with the infamous Iron Curtain speech he delivered here in 1946. Excellent and worth the trip.

Alan Uthlaut

A ton of history from Westminster College. Very nicely done. Not too big. Enough to keep children entertained as well as a look at Churchill's entire life

Janet Miller

I have not been to the Churchill Museum in Fulton Missouri but I'm going to put that on my list I was just surprised when I heard the question on Jeopardy which the answer was a course if Churchill Museum related to Churchill Museum and farting so is only a four hour drive for me so plan on making a trip there soon by

Rick Siegel

Great place to visit to experience the history of Winston Churchill, WWII, and the cold war. Lots of cool art too!

Lee Piner

A great experience all-around.

Phil Pockras

Beautiful setting on the campus of Westminster College in Fulton, MO. Westminster was the place where Winston Churchill gave his famous "Iron Curtain" speech in 1946. You can spend a fair bit of time here. The museum has a lot on the life and times of Churchill, as well as the time and setting of the speech. In a fine tribute to all who fought the unvarnished evil of communism and socialism, now vilely rearing up again, there is a 50' or so section of the former Berlin Wall outside. The building itself that houses the museum is a beautiful English church building, mostly destroyed by German National Socialists in WWII. What was left was disassembled, shipped to America, and reconstructed fully. The building was originally designed by Sir Christopher Wren after the disastrous London Fire of 1666. There's a small fee to enter, and a nice gift shop. Both help maintain the museum. *Well* worth the visit.

Great place packed full of information.

This was a random, quick stop on a long trip, but I'm glad we did; even without going into the museum, there was plenty to see. The pieces of the Berlin Wall were awesome to see; I remember when it was pulled down, and I loved being able to tell my kids about it with the physical pieces right there.

Mike Criswell

A hidden secret right here in the Missouri. Highly recommend!!!!!

BETH CRISWELL

Great museum

An excellent little museum, particularly for the true historian. The exhibits trace Churchill's career with interesting details and a handful of artifacts, including one of his paintings. Would really benefit from having more artifacts, but all said, a quality tour.

Peter Linehan
