You will be impressed by how small the space is, as well as how little pretense there was surrounding the event.
We visited 2 days before the 80th Anniversary of VE Day. It was a Monday, and the high school next door was in session. Teenagers were everywhere outside, but don't let that fool you. Very few people were in the museum the day we went, and most were an elementary school class on a field trip, and they were incredibly quiet and attentive.
