We had booked extra days in the Knoxville area, not knowing what day we'd be able to take the DOE bus tour operated through the American Museum of Science and Energy. The Museum of Appalachia was just down the road from our campground. We decided to check it out. In some respects it reminded us of 1880 Town and the Prairie Village. All three museums had scores of buildings in which to wander at your leisure.
This museum seemed to lean a bit more to the telling of the backstories, humor, and how they "made do" with what they had.
Though we weren't hungry at the time, the on-site restaurant gets pretty good reviews for their comfort food lunch.
