This store & the house across the street are both included in the Downtown ticket - buy online, you can NOT buy tickets here and will be asked to leave if you don't have them already. The lady is very welcoming and informative.

$10 gets you this incredible show about gastrointestinal research and a trading post PLUS the McGulpin house, Manoogian Art Museum, Biddle House, and Benjamin blacksmith shop. Add $7 if you want to see the fort. Reenactors add to the fun.
