Today's question is from @Evadig:

Name one unusual historical site you've visited

The Winchester Mystery House & Alcatraz Island.

I have been by "The Mystery Spot" in Michigan's Upper Peninsula several times. When I say to my husband that we should stop and see it, he laughs and says no, so we have never stopped.

A friend has been there and says it was worth seeing, so maybe next time.

I would like to go to a haunted house some day.

We drove by there every time we went to visit our grandparents’ house!

I've been to the Pencil Sharpener Museum in Hocking Hills. They have all sorts of historical and current sharpeners

The only unusual historical place I can think of right now is General Ambrose Burnside’s lone log cabin in the middle of a town in Indiana. There’s another one but I can’t remember what it was.

Sounds interesting!

Sounds interesting!

It's really tiny too. Only about three people can fit in at a time

Copper Queen Mine, Bisbee, AZ. Ride a mine train into a historic copper mine and learn about how mining copper shaped the history of Arizona.

I've been to the site of a 19th century mill village called Old Job. It is located in the middle of the woods in Mount Tabor, Vermont. There are remains of buildings and a gigantic sawdust pile, but there is not much else left.

I went to the Hi Jolly Monument in Quartzsite, AZ.
