  • What Clients Are Saying about Atomic Cannon (on GG)
    5 /5 Victoria1775: This is a military base so you have to register at the MP check in building, I didnt know that but it didnt take long to do & honestly they cant just let anyone just drive in so I understand that. We stopped at the Atomic Cannon & the other artillery pieces. I was so excited to stand by a Sherman Tank there of the 4th division in the Battle of the Bulge the very same tank, division & battle my grandpa was in, when I was little I remember him telling me stories of how driving a tank was easier than driving a car & of his first tank being hit & destroyed he & his company made it out alive,they were assigned to a new tank, he was only 18 years old then
    4 /5 Brian Ramos: Some interesting artillery pieces from around the globe, dating back about 100 years. A couple pieces were missing, but its interesting to see some of the more odd-ball designs that didnt make it past the prototype stage. If you want to kill 30 minutes on base, definitely worth a gander.
    4 /5 Natalie Koffarnus: Interesting to see for a bit of military history. Some unique pieces that you dont see everywhere.
    5 /5 Dennis Neuber: Awesome place to visit. Lots of history.
    5 /5 Michael Carton: Lots of interesting history to read/learn about here!

    Susie Dalton: Beautiful setting right off Springfield Lake. Plenty of trail under dappled sunshine.. we saw Carp spawning in the grassy part of the lake. Also enjoyed watching a deer, eating tree leaves and grasses. There were also squirrels. Huge trees lined the pathway. One tree was estimated to be there since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Alas three is dead but still standing, towering over the younger trees. Can you imagine all the stories the old timer could tell?

    Cameron ღ: Great exhibit, nice desk person. She was great to talk to and very informative. All of the exhibits felt very personal. I loved the ones that included photos of the actual people who owed the items. Hearing a diary or letter from someone in the 1910s was pretty surreal. Highly recommend stopping by. And the gift shop is well priced!

    m j: Our candlelight tour was wonderful! Due to the weather, we almost had all the interpreters to ourselves. This is a wonderfully restored and maintained Springfield treasure. Highly recommend you visit once they reopen in the spring or make it to the Candlelight tour next year.

    Joshua Alan Lutz: Knights Action Park is a gem! Our kids (2, 4, 6 & 8) all had a wonderful time. We bounced around from section to section and tried out each water slide and attraction. It wasnt until later in the day that we even realized there was a big wave pool! After drying off, we closed out our experience on the go-carts, which were fun :) Highly recommend reserving a day of vacation to this place!

    Dustin Ebaugh: We had a great time here at the old Capitol. We enjoyed the self guided tour and listening to the Lincoln Troubadours sing in the rotunda area and in the old house chamber. This statehouse was not used very long, but Lincoln was in here when he was alive. It was also the last place he lay in state before they closed the coffin and buried him and his son Willie in the Springfield cemetery. We enjoyed the Underground Railroad display and stories in the old Supreme Court Chambers. This place is kind of big and you can schedule at least an hour to see everything. As of June 2025 its open Thursday through Saturday.

    Tanya Fook-Marshall: An excellent train station. We were able to meet the owner who was gracious. Abraham Lincoln made his farewell address here. The doppelganger of Abe also reiterated the address in period clothing. Afterwards we were able to take pictures with him. What a treat! My grandchildren really enjoyed the time spent in Springfield, so did I.
