Celebrate the contributions of African-American soldiers at the Buffalo Soldiers National Museum, where you'll see historical documents and artifacts that tell the story of how the fighting cavalries gained respect over the years. As the only museum to honor the legacy of the Buffalo Soldier, they feature historical artifacts, documents, videos, prints, interactive and multimedia exhibits to entertain and educate visitors about African-American military history.
Explore the remnants of the Old Market Square at La Carafe, where they have a reasonably priced wine bar where anyone can enjoy a mellow atmosphere, a nice wine selection, and good company with interesting people. The dim lights are coupled with arguably the best jukebox in town, ringing tunes from jazz and oldies to the cool sounds of Bob Marley. The bar takes as much space as the area for customers, but that doesn’t stop those wanting to come in and relax a bit, even if it means cozying up to a stranger on a crowded Saturday night.
Immerse yourself in nature as you stroll through Edith L. Moore Nature Sanctuary, where you can enjoy a small sanctuary that offers walking trails, birding, educational programs, and a unique look into the history of their neighborhood. Because they are a conservation property for wildlife and birds, Birders can especially enjoy 200 species of birds that have been sighted over the years and can see them feeding and resting before continuing their journey.
