This is an amazing museum and it's completely free! I spent hours here exploring the many exhibits. They have multiple floors with antiques, pictures, videos, and interactive models. This is a must see place for the family.
This is a terrific free museum that has a lot of Indian artifacts moving through the Colonial period into modern times. Many interesting artifacts continuously through Tennessee history. The arrangement of the displays is a little choppy as it gets separated into 2 upstairs areas that are not connected and locating one of the elevators is a little tricky. Overall though there is something for everyone. Well worth the trip!
This is definitely a great place to go. There are three levels full of artifacts, replicas, informational videos and a ton of history. There is something here for everyone, no matter your age. The best part is that it is free. There are a few artifacts missing, and there are little cards that say so for the, I assume much bigger museum they have planned and currently building that is due to be finished in 2018. Wasn't too crowded which was nice and there are a lot of places to sit. We toured the capital grounds first and went to the military museum, so the seats came in handy. There are restrooms next to the gift shop which is also convenient especially if you have young ones. There are also several elevators placed throughout for those wishing to not take the stairs.
I was very impressed with this free resource in Nashville and sorry I didn't have more time to explore. Nicely presented exhibitions without feeling overloaded with information. Some amazing artefacts. I loved the Mastodon fossils and dug out canoe in particular. A nice way to pass a couple of hours. I don't know whether there are any/ many interactive style exhibits for children/families so I'm not sure how quickly they would get bored but it's definitely good for adults. Friendly staff also.
Improving! They have made a lot of changes and have been improving a lot. I'm kinda surprised at how many people don't know about this place. It's got a lot of historical artifacts that you honestly wouldn't expect. Like a Mastodon and Saber Tooth Tiger skull, a mummy, and a lot more. It's definitely really cool and there's a lot to see. I've been there multiple times and I haven't even been through it all. It's truly amazing and not to mention, IT'S FREE!!!!!! Thank you Tennessee
