Jeffrey Pollock: Exceptional place to bring a group. Arguably the most underrated museum in the state. Immersive, engaging, with a top notch collection.

James Smith: Pretty good museum focused on Michigan history. If you want to absorb it all and read write-ups, as well as participate in various hands-on displays, it will take a few hours to complete. It’s like a smaller version of one of the Smithsonians. Well designed and laid out and put together with quality. It’s typically open for a few hours on Sunday, at which time the entry is free. Tickets are priced reasonably for other days.
Erin Symonds: We spent a few hours on Sunday exploring the Michigan History Center. My son has been asking to go for weeks, and with Sunday being free admission plus free parking, it seemed the perfect time! The mining area was very cool and I love how the center flowed through. There isn't a wrong way to go through the place. My son loved exploring the place. We'll be back soon!
Sara M: Did you know that in Michigan the Polio Vaccine had trials leaded by Jonás Salk? Or that Jiffy the famous mixture of pancakes and baking good was founded in Michigan? Well… all of these and more you’ll learn in this History Center museum which is shared with the Michigan Library.I was gladly impressed during my visit. This museum is organized in a way you enjoy and understand the journey. It is 3 storey and each one is pretty ample. My favourites areas were the “Mining in Michigan”, “The Prototyping Parlour and the recently added “Hazel’s creation” right at the entrance.Sundays are free and parking is plenty and free as well.To go over the whole 3 floors and if you go at slow pace as myself :) allocate at minimum 2 hours. You can go with seniors as there is plenty of seatings and also with children.
Lee Norton: From prehistory to wilderness to territory to statehood, this museum has a professional presentation spread across 3 floors on exhibit. The entry cost is reasonable.Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Not sure Price for adult entry $6–10 …More
Larry Smith: A very cool place to visit, kind of a mini collection of Michigan's diverse history. I was here with a 3rd grade class. I think it was a bit above their grade level. I would suggest 5th grade and above to visit here. A children's museum would have been a better fit for the kids today.
