Its a lovely place to learn and much less crowded than other museums. The staff are very helpful. There is a rule that you can't bring backpacks inside, but one of the lovely employees gave me a locker for it! Sometimes its a bit creepy when your on your own so bring a friend.

Wow! I can't believe how much there was to see here! I attended with a 4th grade class and the museum kept the kids' attention as well. There was a fun scavenger hunt to do where you can search to find items and mark them off like a Bingo game. The kids were seeing cool stuff all over the place and yelling to each other to come see. "Look, a top hat!" and "look, an old violin!" were some of the phrases I overheard. A tiny sampling of the items there include clothes, wagons, toys, quilts, furniture, genealogical books, old Bibles, weaving looms (one was Emma Smith's), sewing machines, an old fire engine, the golden spike, an old camera, and neat portraits. There are portraits covering the walls of the stair wells. We imagined that the images moved like in the movie Harry Potter. It brought those pioneers "to life." Needless to say, the experience was interesting, educational, and moving. What a legacy those pioneers have left for us!

Wonderful place for early pioneer history. You can show your children things that they have learned about. Including the 2 headed lamb! Lovely gift shop and friendly people to talk to and help you.

This museum is very good place for family Museum containing memorabilia from the age of the American pioneers. Most collections from 1800s. Free admission.

Ok, this is one of the creepier, stranger places in Salt Lake City and worth exploring. They have jars of teeth. Stuff made from human hair. Artifacts from the age of Fraternal Orders. Highly recommended. Two headed animals. Infant skeletons. I am not making this up.

The museum was clean and the restrooms were clean and the staff was very friendly. It is handicap accessible and the parking for handicap is directly behind the building not out on the street. Thanks

This is one of my favorite museums. There are more things to see here than I could ever fully explore. This great States history has been captured by little treasures that hold stories of real people. Other locations and monuments complement this museums and can be could all over the state. Take the family, go for a minute or spent the whole day. Truly incredible.

Astonishing, truly — one of the great collections in its category. Multiple floors and many rooms, with expertly organized (and labeled!) items representing every aspect of 19th century settler existence. Includes notable pieces related to LDS leaders, which makes this place an excellent complement to that church’s official museum adjacent Temple Square. No admission fee, just a posted request for charitable support.

Very interesting museum… it’s free to visit! Super big museum filled everything.. the fire tank is a must to see! Two heads lamb is very interesting too!

Not sure if it’s random selection of who has to lock their purse, or if it’s profiling since I was a female wearing “flip flops, jeans and a black sweatshirt” (to cover my medical condition on my arms). I saw other women with larger purses than me walking around in the museum… museum was awesome, cool artifacts, - purse locker was strange and seemed discriminatory (-1 star). Only me and one other person had to use a locker. 🤔
