    This superlative (donation based) free Florida history museum's been excellently well reviewed by fellow yelpers ad nauseam so I'll keep it short.

    Free garage and street parking on the weekends!

    You could blow through in a few hours or if you're like me, could spend the whole afternoon and want to return again and again. Was especially tickled with the Central Florida bits I could find and really appreciated the artifacts and write ups on our Indigenous peoples. Lots of Civil War stuffs. The Silver Springs diarama's impressive. And of course, Love the cars. :)

    A great museum in the heart of Tallahassee telling the story of Florida! The Museum of Florida History provides a permanent physical recreation and exhibition of the history of the state of Florida and its inhabitants, starting from its pre-historic beginnings. A surprisingly large exhibition space winds you through the timeline of history and offers well crafted exhibits, in which you can get lost for hours. In addition, there is large hall which houses the changing exhibition space, most recently on quilting and movies filmed in Florida. Overall, its a great addition to a tour of Tallahassee's museums, with a short walk to either the Challenger Center or the Florida Historic Capital Museum.

    (Full disclosure alert: I absolutely love living in Tallahassee. No, I wasn't born here. In fact, I haven't yet lived a third of my years here - but I'm here for the duration)

    Ok - that said, the museum is truly a gift to our community and it's visitors. Offering a rich collection of artifacts, information, art, and "cool stuff" in general, museum visitors can expect unrivaled depth and breadth of historical Florida coverage.

    The rotating gallery exhibition is a treat - just like the more permanent displays. We come (easily) six times a year.

    Oh - and it's free. That doesn't mean the contribution box should go unnoticed.

    Really well organized museum, you can walk the whole thing in about 1.5-2hrs. It has some interactive exhibits, which makes it interesting for kids, and the staff are more than happy to guide you around. It runs on donations, so please consider donating when you visit - how many museums are absolutely free *and* provide parking validation? At least a couple bucks per person.

    Great place to learn about Florida. Everything from Ponce De Leone to how Florida played a role in WWII and how the Daytona 500 was born. And it's free too but I highly suggest a donation as some so called museums don't have have as much too see. It's very kid friendly too.

    Florida history in 4 hours give or take. This is a very comprehensive exhibit of the state's early to current history. This museum will take some time if you do it thoroughly. The problem is you get a little brain dead after about two to three hours! Nice that it's free. Great to do it over two days or more.
