About Museum of History and Holocaust Education

Housed in the Kennesaw State University Center, this museum offers public exhibits on history and the Holocaust at no charge. Visitors can browse its exhibits and collections, and the museum also runs a Holocaust survivor and veteran oral history program with recorded interview clips. Its educational offerings include free guided tours for school groups, which are led by museum educators and aimed at students in fifth grade and older. Exhibit hours are weekday daytime, and the museum closes for university holidays, so checking the calendar before a visit is wise.
