Safe Haven - Oswego (NY)

5 /5 DJ T.: Incredible source of information on the survivors eho came here. Lots of photos, references, and videos. Very thought provoking and informative. A must do when at the fort in Oswego.

4 /5 Dark Seraphim: Small museum that does an excellent job commemorating the roughly 1000 refugees brought to America from Europe during World War II. The staff is very passionate and the introductory video gives a good overview of that unique moment in American history. Recommend visit if you are in the area and interested in people desperate to escape the horrors of history.

5 /5 Theresa St. John: Such an important place in Oswego. I cried when I went for the first time and have been back several times since. WWII history, and the stories of nearly 1000 refugees need to be kept alive. Staff is very passionate, exhibits are moving. We must never forget, and this museum, near Fort Ontario, helps us remember.

4 /5 Bruce Schaefer: Very interesting place. Never new about it. 982 holocaust victims lived there for a year and half. Actual photos and letters.

5 /5 Kathy Miller: A wonderful place that we sought to visit. I came with family who are descendants of a couple that were brought to this country and here. We had read the book "Haven", which details the little known story. The employee on duty was a young woman who was outstanding in her knowledge and sensitivity. We all learned more and really enjoyed the displays. I loved seeing the Motorcycle groups that had contributed to this project. What a nice surprise.
