    Home of the Wheeling Nailers, the ECHL hockey affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins. A nice, cheaper way of enjoying hockey if you dont want to pay the prices of the NHL. Definitely worth the money if you love hockey, or if you just want something different to do.

    Never been. Let's see what passes for hockey in Wheeling.

    I would like to leave a review for the parking lot attendants. They were super friendly and helpful. We appreciated their kindness.

    In the appropriately named city of Moundsville, you'll find -- you'll never guess -- a great-big…read moremound. But Grave Creek Mound is more than just a mound! It's a sacred religious site of the Adena people, and it was built around 150 B.C. The mound is a burial ground for members of the Adena tribe, and was created over a period of a hundred years or so. You can climb up the mound via steps that wrap around it. It takes a couple of minutes. When you get to the top, the view is pretty cool: You can see downtown Moundsville and the West Virginia Penitentiary, which looks hardcore and gothic, but is out of commission and is now just a museum. I took some time to stand on the mound, breathing the West Virginia air that was blowing around me, and thought about the dead people I was standing on. Just bodies, bodies, bodies all the way down. Probably, most definitely, not even bodies anymore -- they've just transitioned their way back into the earth. It's a sobering place to visit. Anywhooo! There's a museum that you can visit, too (open Tuesdays through Saturdays), which is free to explore. Inside, you can learn about Grave Creek Mound and the people who created it. There are also archeological exhibits with fossils on display, as well as exhibits about local items made in West Virginia, like Marble King marbles and Marx toys, which at one point was the largest toy-making facility in the world. This is a fun and educational place to visit if you're in this part of West Virginia.

    Stopped here for a quick visit on a Sunday afternoon in mid-June 2025. Although the museum and…read moregift shop were closed, it's still quite an impressive feature of Moundsville. If you read a bit about the history of the Adena people who lived here and created many sacred mounds (which have mostly disappeared in the region due to commercial and real estate developers), it gives you greater appreciation of the native Americans who valued this sacred site on the Ohio River and the family and citizens of Moundsville who pushed back to say "No" to real estate developers who wanted to bulldoze this historical mound. I hope the Grave Creek Mound foundation can unite forces and share archaeological items with the state of Ohio which was received a Feb. 2025 Unesco World Heritage recognition for the Hopewell Culture sights and mounds in the state of Ohio. These sacred mounds are similar to royal tombs in South Korea and Japan - which have a shared historical legacy of shamanism (which native Americans likely brought with them during the Ice Age migrations across the Bering Strait fro to Alaska to North America).
