I happened to visit this museum during week of 65th anniversary of Rosa Parks arrest, so it was free. They had additional exhibits as well.I enjoyed the time machine and exhibits. Gift shop is okay. I spent about 2.5 hrs.There is a small parking lot adjacent to museum reserved for museum and its free.

This was a awesome experience while on Vacation. Really enjoyed once in a lifetime.

We when there to visit and my we find some books to sell and some articles, they were pretty cool.

Excellent! Like a Disney show, great quality. 2 sections. Definitely recommend both. First is the time machine bus, very cool. My kids really enjoyed. Then the museum and the bus reinactment, very powerful.

Wonderful 1st time visit to the Troy University Rosa Parks Musem! I ESPECIALLY enjoyed the Cleveland Avenue Time Machine! It looks like a 1955 public bus. You step in, take a seat and you are whisked back in the era of the Montgomery Boycott. It has a fog machine, special effects, an excellent narrater and yes a robot driver!! I had a great time!!! Social distance was very easy. There were only three of us on the bus. I learn a lot of new information. Do put this on your one of the places I need to visit list!!

Awesome learning experience for kids and adults. The tour we did was only 1 side of it and took about 40 mins and was mainly visual presentations.

This is a two-part, small, but extremely high-tech and well done museum. Theres the main Rosa Parks museum on the corner with the fountain and a time travel bus on the opposite corner in the childrens wing. The bus part is skippable but even as an adult, I really enjoyed it. Its like an amusement park ride (a VERY tame one) and it set up Rosa Parks story very well.In the main museum, you wait in an ante-room until the next presentation cycle begins. I had to wait about 15 minutes but by the time I read everything on the walls, it was time to start. A three-screen presentation with the folks involved last maybe 5-10 minutes and lets you hear from the real voices, then the doors automatically open and you go into the next room where you see the actual even take place. Its a bus stop, theres a whole big bus there and each of the windows are screens. You see all the passengers walking around in there and can see it all play out. Its really amazing! Almost to the point where when folks would walk off the bus, it was weird not to see them actually exit the vehicle in front of me. Its just really, really cool. That part lasts for maybe 10-15 minutes, then when you hear the church music, you can open the church doors (they dont open automatically) and walk through the rest of the museum.This part is self-guided and its mainly a lot of reading with some video screens and plenty of full-size vignettes to look at - MLK at his kitchen table, a church wagon taking on passengers during the boycott, etc. Its all very well done and if you read everything, it will take you a while. For kids, there are kid-friendly summaries marked by a cartoon bus along the way.I went in August during Covid, so there was only one other group on the time travel bus with me and I was the ONLY person in the museum. Its $7.50 for adults for each side of the museum, or $14 together. (Also I dont think youre supposed to take pictures in the bus or the museum but I did sneak a couple.)

Lots of things to learn about. Only problem was that it was too cold. I should have brought a jacket.

If youre in the Montgomery area, I highly recommend this museum. The way the information was presented was superb.

A very moving display and interactive media guide us through powerful history.

Enjoyed walking through. Good customer service was provided. The animated bus is more suited for children than adults in my opinion. The upstairs portion is good to reflect and read about some of the known people who were involved in the movement. The actual museum was filled with great history.

Due to the nature of the place, pictures were not allowed to be taken inside. I would have loved to though. The captions of the many notable events were great. One could easily shed tears if willing to empathize or realize what brown people and their supporters had endured. One piece that stood out to me was in a corner in the 2nd hall. The piece was of MLKs expression of death and not being able to return home to see his family. It is surprising to feel that way at times many years later. The museum articulates the passing of the baton and the repetition of history. All are welcome and should visit...

Amazing! I learned more than expected. Very informative. Love the interactive teachings.

Lots of history here. Informative. Knowledge is power. R.i.p Rosa parks.

It was educational and stimulating. I wish I could have stayed longer to read, but I drove in later than expected.

This museum is great for people of all ages. The time machine is also fun and educational. The time machine is a bus with multiple screens around it, the bus makes motions and moves, & shows you a timeline of black history. There is an awesome exhibit where cameras arent allowed so I dont have photos. But you can visit! If you are a Troy student you get in for free with your school I.D. The gift shop also has nice items for a reasonable price. There is a Troy Cafe across the street from the Museum and other restaurants within walking distance. Parking is easy and cheap on the street. Just make sure you bring change for the parking meters. Hope you enjoy your trip!

Real nice muesum, my son loved the simulated bus on the children side. The person working that side could have been a little more friendly and informational, however the other side the staff was great. A must see.

I accompanied a schools field trip to the Rosa Parks Museum, they had an educationally terrific time. Here in the southern States they designates the month of February for Black history. However, in Ghana (Nigeria) Africa, theyre being taught the Black History everyday. When you conversates with our dear family from our Mother Country... Africa, they will tell you, theyre pretty interested in how we are doing as a people who have fought many obstacles that have been made to keep Us from moving ahead. No matter the outcome, we as a strong People of culture and longevity to stay focus and continue to advance at making it better for the next generation, and Still We Rise.

Great setup. Certainly loved it

This is a fantastic place to visit. It is a fantastic representative of the woman that is a huge part of our history. I really think anybody would enjoy this Museum.

Great experience! We stumbled upon this museum and were blown away by the service, information, and eloquence. Tiffany was great and very informative. Visiting the museum is a quick experience but 100% worth it.

Great experience for me and my 9 year old daughter! Tiffany was very courteous to my daughter and was an excellent staff person! Definitely recommend this as a quick stop if youre visiting.

It is a walk through history. There are really two sections. Im not sure of both museums are a part of the Rose Park Museum. One section is a bus ride that takes you through history. Both are worth a visit. There is also a childrens museum. We did not go in the childrens museum because we didnt have any children with us.

I loved this museum. We came from Ms to visit and it was so worth it.

This is a great museum that pays homage to one of the significant figures in the civil rights movement. It is located in the Troy University Building.The museum is divided into two areas. A childrens side and the main museum.There is metered parking outside (coin not credit card accepted parking meters)A sign at the exterior (on Montgomery Ave) of the museum denotes the bus stop where Rosa Parks made history. The main museum entrance is only steps away.Museum ticket purchase is in the gift shop.The museum is divided into two areas. The bus, and the movement.To visit each side will cost $7.50 (a total of $15.00 to see it all)Discounts available for AARP, military etc ($1 off)There is also a no camera policy in the main exibit area due to copyright laws.The gift shop is just ok, but after all you came for the history.

Very well done history of the bus boycott and all of the individuals involved. Great history lesson.

All about history if, you love history this is the place to be.

Well presented and informative for all ages. A must see to appreciate exactly how things were back in the day. The recreation of the bus Rosa Parks protest was effective and memorable. Great books and resources for both students and teachers.

An amazing I site to the start of the civil rights movement.

The museium is very informative on the bus boycotts. The art work is outstanding!

I was able to see what I had read. The writings and props were informative and tasteful. Unbiased if you will.

Nice place. Lot of information!

Such a well run museum. Much needed during this chaotic time! Two sides to the museum encompassing different time frames during the Civil Rights movement. The time hopping bus was very interactive and high tech!

Small exhibit but important lessons to learn.

If your in Montgomery I highly recommend you visit the museum and definitely pay the $14 to see both parts of the museum. Its done very well and the staff are very helpful and friendly.

A great place to familiarize you self with a true legend of the civil rights movement.

The Rosa Parks Museum is such a great opportunity to learn all about Rosa Parks and the history of the bus boycott and the civil rights movement in Montgomery. The staff are very kind and knowledgable about Rosa Parks and civil rights history. Great way to spend an hour or two in downtown Montgomery!

I always enjoy coming into the library upstairs even if its just for a few moments of quiet reading. The museum itself is TOTALLY worth a visit. Sooo many interesting facts about such an important, pivotal moment in our national history!

The photographs were difficult to see. But this was good presentation of race conditions in the South and Montgomery especially. Great learning experience. Must for everyone.

Take both tours. $7 50 each both for $14 per person. Opens at 9am. It may take around an hour . It is worthy

Very very cool place and information was exceptional done to understand the civil rights issues of that time

Wonderful experience! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. A must do for all people!

We saw both sides of the museum on our trip to the Rosa Parks museum. The childrens wing was cute and had a good history lesson. The second side was more expansive and allowed for a self-guided tour to ser artifacts and momentos from Rosa’s life. The re-enactments were a tad cheesy but overall it was a very quaint museum to bring kids.

Im so pleased to have visited the Rosa Parks Museum. I really thought that I had a pretty through knowledge of the Montgomery bus boycott & Mrs. Parks role. I learned a great deal more that has increased my knowledge and understanding.

Great historical stop... doesnt take too much to feel the significance of that era.

Wow. This Museum was very educational for all ages. They bus ride was widely information on the history of Segregation. They have amazing art with specific stories that gear to history as well. The gift was awesome as well. If you havent opportunity to go. You Must...

The museum is very good to learn about the history of America and the revolutionary action of Roda Parks in that time.

Good history info

Loved this place and all the history. Loved the time machine.Everyone that worked there were extremely nice and enjoyed talking to them.

Great collection and interactive.

Very interesting.. all the screens worked when I was there but I can see how it would not be a good visit if some weren’t working for others because 1/2 the exhibit uses them. The staff was friendly, welcoming and personable.

Amazing experience...I feel everyone who love history should go visit Rosa Parks Museum.It is very informative for all ages alike.Theres even a area for kids too!

The Rosa Parks Museum is a hands on experience starting with the virtual bus ride to the exhibits and artifacts so chronically displayed. This is an experience that will give a through understanding of the Civil Rights movement.

The only thing wrong is that there isnt more of it. It is clean, has a good flow, the staff is knowledgable and friendly, and gave an unbiased, truthful historical account.

Had a great time

It tells an important story and is definitely worth visiting. It does seem like its more aimed at children.

Great place to begin a tour of Montgomery. Allows you to refamiliarize yourself with civil rights history before heading to other museums and memorials.

Education IS the key.... Please visit

I learned a lot and enjoyed the way theyve set up the museum so it flows well. Would definitely recommend.

A great museum. With a moving virtual bus ride scene. A must see.

Very interesting place documenting the history of the civil rights movement. I learned a lot even though I lived through that era. No photos allowed inside.

Great place to visit and must for history buffs.we in joyed it

Very informative, learned things I never knew. Its a must!

Nice way to learn the rest of the story about Rosa Parks and the Montgomery bus boycott

Rosa Parks was an amazing woman.

Good collection of exhibits showing a very complicated situation. For example, it was not Rosa Parks case that ended the segregation, and MLK was not even negotiating for integration. Also, the boycott was ruled illegal, so no one claimed they were boycotting the buses.

Very informative! I learned some new things.

I like the way the museum tells the story, the series of events that led to the climax of the civil rights movement. Well done. Worth visiting.

Its a great museum, it did seem a little expensive though. I wouldnt hold that against them, but itd be great to see this place a little more affordable to share the amazing stories and displays.

Very well laid out presentation for both museums for three of us was $38 dont feel it was worth that. But the overall experience was good

A visual feast and very hands on museum. Plenty to see and do that makes the experience nice for kids and adults.

Wonderful family learning experience

Me & my daughter 1st visit, very visual, very informative.

Good to do once, but probably wont visit again. Informative and loved learning about her life. I was hoping the childrens wing was more than just a video but interactive space (my 6 and 3 year olds had been in the car for a long time and I thought they would be able to burn off some steam...not the case).

Good history,, Alabama need to spend more money in this place

This museum is so awesome, its brought chills to me just being there...

I was there for a conference. The facility is really nice. The museum is top notch. Well worth a visit to teach your children about civil rights.

An amazing experience. I reccomend this to anyone and everyone. Very informative and educational. I strongly recommend this for our youth.

Staff friendly and knowledgeable.

Very historical and interesting story about Rosa Parks. I enjoy the show and displays.

Our family enjoyed the museum and learned a lot. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Anyone who wants to better understand our country and the amazing people who make it up should visit.

The Rosa Parks Museum was very cool and fun. I got to learn a lot more about her history as well as Dr. Martin Luther Kings. It is a place I could see myself visiting a second time.

Excellent history lesson with great insights on this event

This was a alright museum. The service was good and the pricing was also good. This was not the best museum but I would recommend this to anyone as I enjoyed being there.

Our 4th grade class field trip. Such a modern representation of the civil rights movement.

Such an incredible museum! Ive always loved Rosa Parkss story, but this museum makes it come to life. The unique and interactive exhibits describe not only Rosa Parkss life, but how she impacted the civil rights movement and how she worked with so many other amazing people to bring about major changes to the country. Check out this museum, and youll feel immersed in the incredible history of the civil rights movement.

Emotionally powerful experience. A crystal clear view of white supremists & segregation...and an in depth look at strong Americans fighting for their human dignity and equal rights. Wept at the Lynching exhibit.

Excellent! I have been through this twice. More history than you will ever learn from a textbook. My son went through when he was in the 3rd grade. Wonderful museum for children also! If you live in Montgomery, this is a must!

Wonderfully delivered. Be sure to add this as a stopover whenever you are in Montgomery. Very informative. I didnt get the chance to visit the Library as it had already closed but I will return in the near future to do so.

One of the best interactive museums I have been to.So much to learn and rich in history.Really good for kids and adults.

Great place! Alot of information on the civil rights movement in Montgomery, and the exhibits were remarkable, as well as the replicas of many influential people during the Montgomery Bus Boycott were very well crafted and lifelike! Many artificats from that era, were very well represented to provide information to visitors to the museum, young and old.

Deep feeling seeing the real places

Such a great place to remind you of the strength it took to start a revolution so long ago!

Enjoyed the experience..Very humbling.

It was an amazing experience. Most of us know the story of Rosa Parks but visiting this Museum made you feel as if you were there. It is a small Museum but powerful.

Very engaging and well done.

Beautiful venue full of history from the bus boycott, the civil rights movement, and more. Also there is a small auditorium inside for performances, speeches, lectures, etc. The stage is not very large, however.

The museum does a great job of making the Montgomery bus boycott experience interactive and relatable to the yourh. Hopefully the museum will expand.

We went to both the childrens museum & adult museum. I highly recommend going to both as the childrens interactive museum is definitely appropriate & educational for adults as well as children.

This was a great experience for my 9 and 7 year old. We enjoyed it.
