The Dwight D. Eisenhower Library and Museum is one of the most iconic attractions in the Midwestern town of Abilene, Kansas, with thousands of people visiting Eisenhower’s boyhood home turned museum every year. The historic site is interesting to explore whether visitors are history and World War II enthusiasts or just simply someone who wants to explore the state of Kansas. One popular thing to do here is to take a photo with the General Eisenhower bronze statue, which stands at eleven feet in height. The grounds are open every day but Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day.
