Across the country, national parks and historic sites are opening once again to visitors.
The Springfield Armory National Historic Site visitor center and museum will reopen to the public on July 2.
The museum has been closed for the last 18 months. During that the time the National Park Service completed a $1.6 million upgrade that focused on critical building systems.
WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke about the reopening plans with Kelly Fellner, Superintendent of the Springfield Armory National Historic Site.
