I believe the only complete remaining Saturn V rocket is on the grounds of
NASA in
Houston, in what was called Rocket Pack.  Used to be you could simply drive
in and
see it and the other rockets.  Now you have to pay to go through a museum
and then
pay extra to ride a trolly over to them.   Last I knew they were working on
a building
to protect it, as it's been deteriating due to exposure to the elements.
