Review & FAQ:
The John Brown Wax Museum is a unique wax figure museum in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia that puts John Brown’s hatred of slavery into detail and traces the history of his violent exploits. It also depicts a number of scenes from Brown’s raid on the town of Harpers Ferry. The larger-than-life story of John Brown can be explored today by visitors to the John Brown Wax Museum thanks to its location on a block that became a National Historical Park in 1963. Various dioramas can be seen throughout the old, small house as guests take a self-guided tour.
