Reviews of Mesa Historical Museum (Museum)

Julie Ann Griffin

We were hugely disappointed in this museum. It is so small, you can see everything & be out of there within about an hour- after having read everything in the place. There are a few interesting relics but the flight section, is wasted, laughable space. They should have just left that to the awesome big aviation museum, nearby. We felt like we wasted $10.00 to look at it.

Educational!

The display area is very small, but even so, about ten times more items could be displayed there. It tops my list of worst museums I've visited. My expectations were low going in, but I was shocked at the lack of content. It's not like they don't have more exhibits that could be shown, either. The displays were so scarce and poorly done, I suspect something isn't on the up and up with the organization that runs it. Go to the Heard museum instead. This one is a waste of time.

Cool museum showcasing items and experiences from life in the Phoenix metro area from it's birth. Takes about 45 minutes to an hour to see everything.

Um yes, why my wife IS an historian..

Not quite what I expected. Should have kept the rooms of the founding families.

Small museum, but great for learning a bit about the history of Mesa

Great little local museum full of local info. Super cool to learn about things from the early time periods of Mesa and see the neat artifacts on display. Better for older kids and adults (3 yr old was less than impressed lol). Worth the stop if you love history!

Amazing look into the rich history of Mesa and Lehi. Properly located in one of the oldest neighborhoods in the valley in a historic building! Highly recommend a visit to everyone!

Loved it!

A sad excuse for a museum, certainly they could do better than this. A couple pictures. A couple antique common household items. Believe me when I tell you I was generous with a rating of 1. Don’t waste your time. There are antique stores just down the street with more character than this.

An incredible piece of history. The historical building is being honored in a wonderful fashion. The exhibits are small but pack a huge punch. Very detailed exhibits provide a great learning experience for any age, take advantage of this gem before the masses find this treasure.

A small museum on the history of Mesa. A trip down memory lane for older people with the treddle sewing machine, old saddles and a mimiagraph machine. There is a gentleman there that is very friendly and informative, made the visit that much better.

This museum shows up in google maps in the Lehi area and they even have a sign and items in the lawn but no sign tells you it moved!

Hours are not convenient for everyone. Small museum however quality exhibits and objects displayed. Staff friendly and well educated.

Closed to the public

Worth a visit. This stuff used to be located just North of Downtown in Mesa neighborhood of Lehi. If you're a baseball fan there it tells the history of the Cactus League that was started in Arizona with the New York Giants baseball team.
