I enjoyed my visit to the Nebraska History Museum. I thought it was well laid out and had informative information about the different time periods in Nebraska.I really appreciated the fact they had hand sanitizing stations set up all around the museum.

Great lessons in history..loved the womens voting exhibit..

Woah, there’s so much to learn from this museum. Short, detailed descriptions beside every exhibit are insightful.

Technology is moving this gem forward in Lincoln Nebraska as digitation becomes the savior of history...be sure to check hours but make it a stop for a tour!

A nice small museum. Lots of interactive questions.

This place is awesome if you want to learn more about Nebraska history.

Great place to get a brief history of Nebraska and America within a few hours. We visited here in the first few days we arrived Lincoln and the knowledge we got from the museum was helpful for newcommers like us. I think it is a good place to take your kids to too.

I was only here for about an hour with my daughters fourth grade class field trip so we only got to see a very small section of the museum. I was disappointed that we only had a limited amount of time there. But what we did get to see we found very interesting. I want to go back with my family for another visit when we have much more time to explore the entire museum.

Well balanced collection with some Interesting and thoughtful displays.

This museum has a lot of valuable information and activities for children. This is a family trip. Great tourist attraction.

Still portraying my mothers pics of Chimney Rock!!! Pretty awesome of them to keep them on display this long!!!

It was good to see how well recent renovations look. The exhibits on our visit were eclectic, consisting mostly of various artifacts on display without any unifying theme other than their Nebraska heritage. The explanatory texts were very helpful, though, and the visit was worthwhile. Sometimes, the let it all hang out strategy is good for a museum with as strong a collection as this one.

Peddlers. Neat little museum.

This place is amazing. So many historical literature and items. A real treasuregrove. Every visit you will find something you didnt see previously.

Very interesting to learn so much about the history of the Great State of Nebraska at this museum in downtown Lincoln. Well worth at least two or three hours and I was glad to be here during the summer break. I have no doubt that this place fills up with kids on school trips who are running about and generally making a lot of noise. None of that today! Starting with an exhibit on dirt racing (the docent was unimpressed with my knowledge of the NASCAR Hall of Fame in my home of Charlotte), there were crafting exhibits, women in business, a huge photography exhibit and more about Nebraska growing from territory to state.

We were visiting Lincoln to see family and spent a couple hours at this museum. Lots of great exhibits on the history of the plains and Nebraska in particular. First floor dedicated to stock car racing if that is your thing. The 2nd floor is more your typical history exhibits. Also great for kids with some hand on exhibits. This is not the Smithsonian but a great local museum. See it if time permits. The presidential dolls are very creepy. Wish they told you more about them. Museum is free of charge.

Super proud to visit the Womens Sufferage Exhibit! Good work NHM.

My son loves it there cant wait for the new car display!

Very informational and friendly people

Great history and stories.

They have changed a lot. There are more kid friendly displays. But a lot of the old historical artifacts are no longer on display. I felt like there was just a lot more that could be done in the space. Especially on the top floor.

Fascinating look at Nebraska history, including race cars, Native Americans and mud houses, among other things. An intriguing look into the past!

Enjoyed both the Nebraska Womens Suffrage Exhibit and the Solomon Butcher Photograph Exhibit.

You can pick up a phone and hear direct information on museumed pieces. Really fun and relaxing.

Nice place to take a stroll through and learn about the history of the state! Always nice to take a minute to appreciate the past.

So much to learn about! Thoroughly enjoyed my visit!!!

Not a very expansive collection. However it was very nicely kept and very educational for the kids. We will continue to support the museum.

Full of recent updates, this is a wonderful way to explore the history of Nebraska. A great all-weather, all-seasons option. Gift shop has unique items from Nebraska vendors and books from or about historic places, people, and topics related to the state which are NOT just about football. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Go!!

There wasnt a whole lot of stuff there that could be educational they could add a little bit more

What an incredible display of the Suffrage movement in Nebraska. It is a must-see.

Beautiful quilts, interesting objects from Nebraskas history and a beautifully creepy mask collection, all for free!

Simple and accessible for a little time-killing walk-around

A great way to spend Saturday morning with a group of teenagers. Visiting the Nebraska History Museum is a wonderful way to engage young learners in historical events of the mid-west.

It was a very interesting place. It brought out my inner history buff.

A great repository of Nebraska history. If you are from Nebraska, you will appreciate this museum.

Nicely curated little museum. I got the impression they hadnt been opened long or maybe just not in this locations. It looks like they are working on expanding as funding permits. The exhibits are lovely and informative. I was happily surprised to find quilts there! The gift shop is very nice as well. The 3rd floor is currently closed, thus my comment about expanding. I look forward to visiting again in the future if my travels bring me this way again.

Modestly sized but very good state history museum. You can see everything in about an hour and a half. Definitely worth a visit, and its free!

Sweet spot. We were short on time so we went fast but highly recommend taking your time! Awesome displays that I will stop in again for at some point!

Great experience! New quilt exhibit is outstanding. A new exhibit featuring The History of Stock Cars in Nebraska will be opening on August 25!

Great history of our state

Very interesting history, lots of exhibits, a great layout. The map in the lobby was particularly interesting; I dont think I ever realized just how massive nebraska is until I saw it

A lot of interesting history.

The redesign is awesome. Definitely check it out. Best of all its free. Even better, donate so they can get more of the exhibits back up. Keep an eye out for fun after hours events and First Friday shows as well.

Beautiful things to go learn about

So many cool things!! Exhibits change so there is always a reason to come back. The store also has lots of cool gifts.

Awesome visit and super cool

“Small but worth a visit.”We stopped here after visiting the capital and enjoyed a very good docent lead tour. This provided us with highlight of the states history in the limited time we had available. They are moving to larger quarters, which will allow more of the collections to be displayed. We recommend it even if you only have an hour or so.

Has an abundance of artifacts but they are jumbled. Theres no sense of order to them such as division between time periods.

I especially liked second floor. Admission is free.

Great museum! Friendly and helpful staff. Interesting, informative, and interactive.

Good thing it was free because there was not much to see.

Free admission, good hours, interesting stuff. Much of the collection exhibit didnt have a theme, but were interesting items with historical context that had been donated to the museum.

It was very interesting and the kids had fun. We would like to go back sometime.

Jeff Korbelick talked about lost Lincoln restaurants. Room packed and quiet as a mouse.

I think I learned as much as my son on his field trip and only scratched the surface of the Nebraska history that they have on display. Tour guides were great and answered everyones questions.Worth at least a couple trips and to try and see it all.

Wonderful friendly environment free and great for any age

Love the fact its free. Honestly sad they remodeled. Nice to see new exhibits but the loss of the old ones and the cool staircase is so sad. No flow. Exhibits bounce between 1800s and 1900s. I would have given the museum 5 stars before the remodel.

Pretty neat for a rather small museum. You can spend some quality time there. worth a visit.

Fun place, great exhibits and store.

Really cool museum that celebrates the state. The current display has 150 items from Nebraskas history with stories about their significance. I wish I could have stayed longer.Admission is free.

Wow. What a great makeover. I love what youve done with the place!

Great museum and staff is so friendly, been there few times and I love it, it also has many things about various cultures

This place a nice collection of items from our state history.

Great place!

Fabulous place for kids and adults. True gem

Wonderful hands on experience for the kids!

Nice place but the layout is very blah, needs a little more pizzazz

Great museum! I appreciate the knowledge I gained today.

Well organised

Loved this, great car exb.

I found it so interesting n i visited it in 2016

Was extremely disappointed. As a child I remember how amazing this place was. Pumped my kids up for a visit and everything was changed. Only one floor really open, the artifacts on Nebraska were neat, but this place was so much more before. No historical cars the old stair case, amazing guns even the actual childrens play area was gone. Just completely shocked. The so called remodel distroyed the museum. We seen everything and was only there for 30 mins.

A little disappointed with the displays.

Nice local museum with an eclectic mix of historical artifacts from the area

Its very limited at the moment. But was told it will get better.

One of our favorite places to go in the winter as a family. Very fun, for all ages!

Exhibits change frequently! When I went there were derby cars and quilts. They dont charge admission so its something you should definitely check out!

A great place to go to explore Nebraskas past.

Very educational and fun staff was great

For a free museum this place is great!

I love how they keep things up-to-date while switching things around. This is where I learned that the worlds biggest carving knife was forged and put on display......Well, forged IN Nebraska, put up in display here in the Museum

Wish Id been able to stay all day.

Free entry. Nice quilts.

There are always good exhibits and activities going on here.

Very interesting and informative displays and artifacts. Friendly staff, free admission.

Alot to see with tons of things for the kids to do

Very well kept building and exhibits. Admission is free.

Lots of cool historical displays. Very interested.

Small but interesting museum with a surprising number and variety of exhibits.

Free museum that offers an excellent collection of Nebraska history across industries and eras.

Not enough rocks from Talon

Friendly staff. Museum was well laid out and informative.

Lots 2 see. Nice exhonots

Not a whole lot of fun for our kids.

Free admission always! So interesting!

Great day at work today and tomorrow morning I will be here until my next check and see if I can get a hold of the same thing as you can so that is what it is

Very interesting and free

Awesome place to learn about history for free

Was awesome

Looking forward to the Nebraska Auto Racing exhibit
