Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I had a thoroughly delightful visit to this interpretive center last week. The helpful and knowledgeable lady on duty gave me a private tour. While the museum is small, it has quite a few interesting artifacts and the local history, including the Adena Indian mound and the evolution of industry there, is well worth the time.

The South Charleston Museum has been is south Charleston since 1989 and is presenting sharing the La Belle theater with the south Charleston CVB. The Museum has a Belgian display at the Interpretive Center at 313 D Street commemorating the Belgians as they had the first business in South Charleston. We have an office in the theater on the second floor and a few displays in the lobby of the theater. We have been having live musical performances in the theater and we also feature area artists.

This is not the right picture. That is the charleston museum in SC. They should really put the right picture up. This is in the la belle in South Charleston, and i think its a theater for plays. If it does have some facts and a couple historical items, I wouldn't call it a museum. It only took me a couple mins to find a picture of the real ,so called musuem, only to find out it was a theater. So plz put up a real picture of your business. It only makes you look bad for puting up a picture of a much nicer place, that is someone else's museum, and is no where near charleston, WV. So you could also put up your real name , which is La Belle. What you have done is wrong, and false advertising is illegal. Just for the record, I have never been to the La Belle, and won't being going. The only reason is, I wouldn't see what I thought I was going to see. I would have to go all the way to the building in the picture, which is in SC. So if you would change the picture, to picture of the actual theater, it would be appreciated. By not only me, but others who think they will be going to a real museum. Thank you so much

Very interesting place. The gentleman that showed us around was very pleasant and informative.
For a local museum it showed a great perspective on the area's history.
Great way to spend an hour.

Very disappointing. Promising start being in an old Movie Theatre but content lacking and no body showing any interest in visitors. Wish I hadn't bothered
