Reviews of Behringer-Crawford Museum (Museum)

Judith Terry

Best museum in the area. Very friendly and ìn formative staff. It has four floors of displays of northern Kentucky history and civil war displays. Has a nice interactive train display on first floor. Museum has expanded quite a bit over the years and has a nice outdoor area for concerts through the summer.

David Oakes

Excellent museum in a beautiful location

John Egbert

Cool exhibits, lots of random fun stuff, very nice area as well

Douglas Striker

Jam packed with fun exhibit displaying NKY history!

Ray Matsuzaki

Definitely a diamond in the rough. We had no idea this place existed, but it was fantastic for our toddler. So many things to play with and touch. The road has a few twists and turns, so you may want to be aware of people who get motion sick. But overall a great place to go.

David Crotty

Great small museum with great summer music program.

Carolyn H-M

Great place for families! Trains, train tables, a replica of the front of a river boat. The rotating displays are interesting, too. It's been relatively quiet every time I've been here, which is a nice contrast to the busy Cincinnati Museum Center. Its small enough that the adults can look around while the kids do their thing. All around, its a great place to get the kids out of the house for a few hours!

The museum isfull of regional history and culture and the summer music series is outstanding.

Jason Brewer

Great place to go explore. My daughter and I decided to check it out on a rainy Saturday. The museum is tucked away in the Devou Park. Not real easy to find but there are signs. But it is worth it. We had a great time checking out all the exhibits. The train display and the trolley car from Covington, KY were a couple favorites. If you like history, especially local history, you should definitely stop by for a visit.

Nathan Dalton

Fun little museum with a lot of activities for children. If your children love trains, you have to check it out.

Fantastic museum in Northern KY. Have been visiting since discovering the museum I'm 2002. They have regular rotating exhibits and permanent exhibits that cover history and different forms of transportation in the tri state area.

Matthew Graubner

This is a wonderful local history museum. It has great content, friendly staff, and is family friendly. My two daughters and I visited on Smithsonian's Free Museum Day. I enjoy history and enjoyed reading a number of signs and displays covering various aspects of local history. My children were fascinated by some of the exhibits (the model city and trains on the first level were a highlight), but especially by the child-friendly activities to be found on each floor. I was quite impressed that each floor had at least one area for young children to play and interact with the theme of the area (i.e. train table, or fishing from a boat). My only complaint on the family friendly aspect is that the third floor men's room did not have a changing table. I didn't visit the restroom on the first floor to know if it had one. After going through the building we enjoyed visiting the small playground adjacent to the building. I was told that it was always free to visit. With free parking in the Museum's lot I know we'll be back to the playground for sure, and we'll also go inside to see the Museum's exhibits again.

This place is great for children. All 4 floors each has playing section for children.

Jason Potter

Hard to describe it in one sentence, but here goes... "A really, really neat place!"....AND A well done summer concert series on Thursday evenings.

Patrick McAllister

Really nice little museum. Really interesting artifacts and antiques, lots of interesting history, and it’s located in a very beautiful area. Perfect for families with kids, and it has just the right amount to see. I did not feel overwhelmed by the amount of items, nor did I feel like there was anything missing. Took about two hours to walk through, and a nice walking area outside that makes for a nice stroll.

Sharon Piccirillo

Loved it

Bethany Hanson

Great little space! They pack a lot into a beautiful museum inside and out. Always something fun to do with the kids and interesting exhibits for everyone. The Thursday night concerts are the place to be in the summer!

Erica Niles

Highly recommended for NKY history

K Walton

Beautiful museum! Loved hanging out at the playground right outside the doors!

Jean Barclay Mastrangelo

Very cool little museum of a lot of different items.

Ben Calfee

Way over-priced for the size. Takes about 15 minutes to see everything

Shawn Wilson

Fun very interesting

Janice Miller

It was ok, but the kids were bored.

Kristen Fredriksen

Great museum with lots of interactive exhibits. Kids will love this place! Good for adults, too - lots to read (alongside photos) on signage that clearly tells the story of northern Kentucky through various methods of transportation. Lots of non-transportation-related things to learn about, too. I spent about an hour and a half here without a kid. Pretty Christmas decorations and a fun train layout during the holidays!

Diane Howard

The Museum is interesting. Also in the Summer each Thursday they have a concert in the park.

J OZ

Definitely worth visiting again! Visited during the holiday with the trains. Family and I enjoyed it immensely. We spent about 2 hours here and it was very affordable for the whole crew to visit.

Mark Jensen

Outstanding friday night concert series.

Alexis Bene

Good Christmas train display

Joe Ulloa

Ok

TOM SOMMERKAMP

Ann interesting collection of local history and artifacts.

Rick Mendenhall

Best place for little ones. If you need to get out of the house during the long winter so your kids don't go crazy or you for that mater this is a great place, Prices are low and there is so much for the kids to do also educational the way a educational attraction should be.

Randy Hensley

A little pricey for what it was, but interesting

Gayle Keck

A bit of a mish-mash, as far as museums go. I wanted to see some of the prehistoric finds from Big Bone Lick, and they have a few displays of those. Other highlights included an amazing miniature city layout and lots of interactive opportunities for kids.

Angela Baldridge

Loved this place! Lots of neat history bits woven into very fun, kid- friendly exhibits. The buttons for kids to push in the train exhibit, and the bubble to climb into and watch the train exhibit from inside were especially fun for our little guy.

UK#1 KYKID

Great place to learn local northern kentucky history. Very interesting items to look at, in the winter they have a train display.

Kevin O'Melia LMT

Cool little museum!

Todd Shupe

great for kids

Wesley Bratton

A hidden gem of a museum. A history museum of what river life was like and life in Cincinnati and surrounding area. Great for young and old alike.

Melissa Wanamaker

Very nice ,quiet, fun filled

Steven Brumer

4 levels of interesting history from Northern KY. Ellis Crawford, curator for many years, helped make it what has become - a staple visit each Christmas for the train displays, and through the year especially with the new outside play area for no charge.

LeAnn Miller

Lots of stuff to look at. Little one loved the trains. Could be more for the kids to interact with.

Barbara Lakes

Great concerts

This museum has 4 floors with exhibits of trains, transportation history of the area and some odds & ends like a two heads calf. It costs $9 each to enter.
