This local museum may be on the small side, but it's extremely well-done. Housed in the historical Kennesaw House, it offers interesting artifacts and exhibits that document the area's extremely storied past. The history of Cobb County is well preserved here, and anyone with an interest in the Civil War especially will find this museum worthwhile. Admission is $5 per person.
