| - Ultimately, I definitely enjoyed my experience at the Fort Pitt Museum and I'm glad I finally went after many thoughts of "I should totally go." I knew very, very little of the early history of Pittsburgh, Fort Duquesne, and the French-Indian War, etc. As someone who has an interest in history, though, I'll admit that I found it a bit overwhelming. I should have prepared myself with some better background knowledge - it would have helped me keep things straight. But, again, I definitely had a good time. In fact, I think the exhibits toward the end of the museum were more interesting than the first main room.
I'd like to go again - and it would give me an excuse to spend more time at the Point. Really, the most iconic part of Pittsburgh, and I never seem to get there... The other reviewer here noted that it's easy to miss it. I'd say the first couple times I went to the Point, I definitely didn't notice it at all!
