Reviews of Portland Museum
Lee CervenyThis is an amazing little museum and a great resource for the community. If you are traveling on I-64 and want a dose of art, history and river culture, stop here. We learned so much about the history of Portland, the Ohio River and contemporary life. Great for kids! Kudos to the staff! It's a free museum, but it's always great to donate.
Nikki FeusnerWe went today, a gloomy rainy day but it was extremely nice inside. It was our first time going and we will be back. Everything was nice and neat. Beautiful building and exhibits. We enjoyed the local history and the African art. The historian there was super kind to us and very informative. I can't wait to go again on a beautiful day where we can enjoy the outdoor part as well.
Jerry and Charlotte S.Wonderful museum. Portland is an interesting neighborhood worthy of studying. Friendly staff.
Alan KaeserIf you like small regional museums , this is a gem. It has a nice history of the area. They will be adding a children's museum in the future.
Laura Bergner OwensWhat a great place! I went to the exhibit from the Smithsonian on voting and democracy. The Portland Musuem did a beautiful job with the displays. This FREE museum is easy to get to and has a beautiful outdoor space/courtyard in the historic building. Easy on-street parking is free too.

Philip DeLaneyEnjoyed our visit to the Portland Museum on the Louisville Cultural Pass. Very in-depth history of Portland and how it related to the Ohio River and Louisville. There are many fascinating stories to be heard here. The old house which is part of the museum is also rich with history. Well worth spending a couple of hours or more here. Don't miss the newsreels of the 1936 flood, either!
Scott SpenceGreat little museum. Portland is rich in history and was the largest city until the canal was built around the Falls of the Ohio. Portland is full of pride and has great potential to be a booming neighborhood. It is the largest neighborhood in Louisville.
Porter WatkinsIt's simply wonderful! Everyone in Louisville should visit and learn
the REAL history of our city. Excellent displays and write-ups. VERY
nice, knowledgeable and helpful people. This place is a hidden jewel.
Go on a week-day and have lunch at The Table just down the street.
(Restaurant open Mon.-Fri., 11am-3:00. Food is great. A "pay as you
go" effort that has been a resounding success!) pw
Larry LoewInteresting place for anyone interested in local history!!
JP BGreat institution serving its neighborhood, the city and river buffs everywhere. It’s current hosting of Wes Modes’ the Servret History Of American River People is another great example of their creative, progressive programming. Go Portland Museum!
Cathy SennEveryone living in Louisville should visit this museum. What a history lesson, all school children should take a field trip there.
Aaron CecilWhat the Portland museum has for show is reasonably intriguing. They are working on adding more exhibits. As a native Louisvillain, I learned a few things i was previously unaware of

Marla BasnightNice place to learn Port and neighborhood history .. They need volunteers to keep the doors open.. I grew up in Portland even though I moved away in still a Portland girl at heart..
Shirley OllerIt's a good place to learn about Portland neighborhood. Educational, and the workers are polite. Portland is what built this city.
William MorrowThe only museum west of the 9th st corridor in downtown Louisville. A wealth of historical knowledge about origins of Portland/Louisville.

Jen Van BeekGreat hospitality. We enjoyed on the art fair tour, loved printing press experience. Wish it was open on the weekends!
