The Johnstown Flood Memorial and Johnstown Flood museum were very interesting. The museum had no on-site parking; had to park on side street with meters or across the street and over a bridge for free parking. Disappointing that the inclined railway would not be in operation.until sometime in 2023.

Johnstown and the surrounding area is steeped with history. You can visit the museum and learn about the devastating Flood of 1889, and go to the Flood Memorial several miles up river to see and experience the origin of said flood. If you're into railroad history, it's a short drive to the Horseshoe Curve. They have a really cool funicula that takes visitors up the mountain. If you're into more recent history, you can go to the Flight 93 Memorial. This is the site where the brave passengers and crew of the flight ended their struggle to prevent further tragedy on September 11, 2001.
