Love the corn husk dolls they sell at the gift shop and now I have them from 5 other Countries
Pretty cool place. Loads of history. Would be nice to have historical accuracy such as the first Thanksgiving actually bring at Berkley Plantation in Williamsburg well before the pilgrims. Plus the claim of being the oldest museum is wrong; that belongs to Charleston, S.C.There is a neat little video that explains why the pilgrims landed at Plymouth instead of the mouth of the Hudson. The paintings are beyond beautiful.
It was alright. The staff was very friendly and helpful however the museum was kind of cut and dry. I wish someone would talk to you about the certain exhibits such as the belongings of the pilgrims. They had them labeled to what they were but no back story. I do recommend checking out Plymouth Rock more because it’s free and the real thing!
I liked this museum it was interesting
Great collection of artworks and history and we enjoyed the interpretation paintings of the events but some of the paintings that we see are not in the proper place.
I love the history, I love that it’s actually open in February. The ladies working were adorable and so helpful! Although it’s not large, there are many neat artifacts and a lot to learn! I had a great experience and I’m really happy I went. Kids are free in February which was awesome because we came late at 350, and they close promptly at 430. I could have used some more time. The kids got age appropriate scavenger hunts which they loved. Recommend go! I think an hour would be adequate.
This is a small museum but well worth the visit because of the unique artifacts within.There is a good display to inform you about the actions of the Pilgrims before they came to North America. For example, I learned that they did not come straight from England! The film is good, and there are pieces in the museum that were belongings of the Pilgrims. I was especially impressed by the cradle of the first baby in the colony, the country’s oldest needlework sampler, and the colony charters.When I visited, there was a very good informative collection of clothing which talked about how the Pilgrims have been portrayed over the years and what they actually wore. There was also a rotating exhibit to the left of the front door which, when I visited, contained examples of wedding dresses from the 1600s to present day. The museum also contains a library and a very nice collection of oil paintings.There is a small gift shop with books, trinkets, and jewelry. There is very limited parking in the front, but a larger lot in the back. Handicapped people should try to park in the front if possible. The building does have an elevator and air-conditioning. Allow an hour for your visit, or more if something particularly interests you.
Wonderfully curated, interactive for all ages, and very helpful staff. If you want to come face to face with the real story, come here!
The oldest public museum in the U.S. (built in 1824), showcases possessions of the early Pilgrims - an impressive collection of things that belonged to the original pilgrims. This museum is a precious gem. Won’t mind a bit of history.
Pilgrim Hall houses an impressive collection of things that belonged to the original pilgrims. The video is engaging and interesting, and there is artwork on display upstairs depicting how our picture of who the pilgrims were has been shaped through history. This museum is a gem.
A lot of neat history in this museum . I highly recommend taking in this bit of history.
Great history. My son loved the treasure hunt and it helped him learn more about our history. All of the staff were friendly and knowledgeable and the bathrooms were sparkling clean.
Great remodel several years ago and solid, accessible history.
Small musuem. No discounts except for active duty military. Historically important exhibits but you can be in and out in 30 minutes.
Interesting place to explore. Interactive and engaging. Easy to do in 1-2 hours
Alright.. museum has 15min video explaining reason why settlers decided to come, details of initial contact with natives and early thanksgiving. Its a very small museum, $10 is entry fee. Some artifacts of first settlers are on display like bible, weapons, documents, ....
Loved the wedding dress exhibit. America, we have a fascinating history!
Considering the budgets available to our cultural landmarks. The museum is well cared for, has a good flow and a rich amount of artifacts. The staff was very helpful and friendly.
My husband and I enjoyed the interpretation paintings of events of history. The explanations of how they visioned and how off the mark they were. Opened my eyes to a few missed details.We will be bring my parents, when they come for a visit.
Very nice, wish there were more artifacts. The paintings were amazing.
Dont waste your time with the treasure hunt...there were no treasures. While youre at it, skip the museum. We basically went in to get info on what to do on Thanksgiving. 4 stars for their friendly staff.
Really enjoyed this museum.
Great Collection of art work and history of the original colony and area.
