I have been to the WWII museum in New Orleans a few times. It is great however, the Eldred WWII museum was a hidden gem, thanks to this website. I happened to google WWII museums near Buffalo, NY and found this one. It was amazing. So much detail and work has gone into every speck into that place. I thought the dioramas of Omaha Beach and the Battle of Kursk were amazing. They keep a great collection and the employees know everything about that museum as well as the history of Eldred as a munitions plant during the war! I work with Holocaust survivors and their portion of the museum was cornered off from those that may not wish to view the photos in there. It was tastefully done and very educational. The best thing is that they have so many cool things for kids. They didn't get bored or whine about not having anything to do. I would go back here in a heartbeat!

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during these unprecedented times. HOME OF TWO AMERICAN ICONS - Zippo Lighters & Case Knives!
This place was on my bucket list. So after taking my son to his hockey game 2 hours from our house in Bradford. I said we are stopping at Zippo. He didn't seem to thrilled. But he seemed to enjoy it. Loved the Zippo American flag. Great gift shop. Was neat to learn the history. Friendly staff.

The 339-acre Kinzua Bridge State Park, is the home of the reinvented Kinzua Viaduct. The Viaduct, once the longest and tallest railroad structure at 2,053 feet long and 301 feet high, was partially destroyed by a tornado in 2003. Reinvented as a pedestrian walkway during 2011, visitors can stroll 624 feet out on the remaining support towers, peer miles out into the Kinzua Gorge, and gaze down through the partial glass platform at the end of the walkway. The Kinzua Bridge State Park Visitor Center and Park Office features great views, self-guiding exhibits, and information about the surrounding area.
—-Sky Walk, hiking trails, rail-to-trail, picnic areas, decks, food truck, Visitor’s Center, Museum, and more—- Overflow parking is available. During peak travel, the parking lot fills up fast.

I absolutely love the Allegheny National Forest. We stopped at the Kinzua Visitor Center but it was closed due to Covid. Amazing photographs from this area overlooking the river and forests. Enough parking too. Worth the stop on the way to or from the dam.

Penn Brad Oil Museum strives to preserve the history and culture of the Bradford Oilfield. The museum offers individual and group tours as well as a resource library and gift shop. A Standard Rig is at the center of the many exhibits that give the viewers a glimpse of the past glory of the "High-grade Oil Metropolis of the World."
If your are close to route 6 this is a must see museum. Very informative about oil production and the fundamentals of how they pumped oil out of the ground. We had a great guide who was informative.

We are now a winery, brewery, distillery and full service restaurant. If you've never been here or haven't been back in a while, now is the time to revisit. And come with an appetite.
We’ve eaten here many times and i can honestly say that I never had anything that I didn’t love..from the... fish fries/steaks/potato soup/homemade fries/desserts....the drinks and beer are great along with the atmosphere....will definitely be back..love the back room for parties and the patio...
