The Schiele Museums main focus is on North Carolina's history of the Piedmont area. Inside they have exhibits of North Carolina's geographic regions. Outside they have a nature trail filled with all kinds of different flowers. They also have the Backcountry Farm with reconstructed buildings to depict the early days of North Carolina's pioneers. They also have a planetarium has laser shows and live sky constellation programs and various shows on the sun and the moon. The price of admission isn't outrageous and if you're a Gastonia resident you get in free. Can't get much better than that.
