An instructive museum dedicated to the cause of Freedom. Climb directly onto the 4 th floor and visit the museum by descending. It tells the story of the country's formation around the concept of freedom and faith. Successes and failures are traced back to it, particularly through the history of slavery and its abolition. On the 3 rd floor, an interactive room denounces the violence of American society, recalling the massacres in American schools and terrorist attacks, exposing film posters and disseminating a video on weapons. This is done well, and especially useful for the younger ones. See Jellybean Children, a sculpt made with candy on the theme of difference. On the walls of the stairs, photos of firefighters who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. At the same level, the left hall honors heroes of freedom around the world, such as Anne Frank and André Trocmé (photo and small biography), as opposed to tyrants from Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Zimbabwe. Hitler, Milosevic, Ceaucescu or Saddam Hussein are on the front line, illustrated by photos of a cross (meaning their death). On the 2 nd floor, the room in the museum pays tribute to 20 Americans who received the Nobel Peace Prize, including Martin Luther King Junior and Theodore Roosevelt. The approach may seem a little childish or naive, but this museum has the merit of provoking a very affordable reflection.
