Cleveland History Center, Cleveland

This is a nice museum with self guided displays of local Cleveland history. The carousel rides are unlimited with admission ticket. No food available. The gift shop was underwhelming. Has a small play place for smaller children. The play place is generic and not a learning/hands on type of play place. There was no wait to get in or to see any displays. There was very little traffic throughout the museum. We did the museum in little over an hour looking at and reading most of the displays.

Definitely visit this place if you love automobiles and planes. There are many exhibits of motorcycles and cars from different eras. There's also a carousel which runs every 20 minutes and is included in the ticket. Entrance is free for CWRU students.

This place was disappointing, to be honest. The car and women's rights exhibits were fine, and the mansion housing some other exhibits was beautiful, but we learned very little about the city and its people. They could've presented a more comprehensive and cohesive collection that tells the story of the city and highlights its industrial and cultural significance. Instead, what we saw was disjointed and uninspired. Some serious curatorial work is in order. In addition, it was difficult to move about when most of the space has been taken over by an events company that was dressing up one of the halls. They made us feel like we were getting in their way and just wanted to get rid of us. So yeah, this place was a real letdown and it's hard to recommend this to anyone interested in local history and culture.

This was a really nice find in the downtown area. I was very impressed by the solders museum and highly recommend it. It's free!

I recommend visiting. If you love the Land go check out all the cool Cleveland history. If you don't know Cleveland, pay a visit and learn why we love Cleveland.
