Reviews of Oshkosh Public Museum (Museum)

Nicole Beaver

Nice museum with a fun scavenger hunt for kids!

It's a neat place but it's small. So, the exhibits are small. I think the admission price is high for what you get.

Richard Armes

It has items that are original, yet unique to Wisconsin, compared to any other museum.

George Rawson

This is a small museum but well maintained it gives you a look into the yesteryears of Oshkosh one of the main features is the apostle clock hand built over a hundred years old. It has a unique display that runs every hour with the apostles and Jesus Christ. Even though this museum is small it's displays are done very well just like you'd see in a large metropolitan museum. The museum sets right across the street from the pain mansion and gardens. Easy to visit both in one day

This historic museum is a great place to visit if you want to learn more about the history of Oshkosh. It also houses one of the most unique artifacts you will ever see - The Apostles Clock!!

Colleen Rawson

This is a small public museum but it's well taken care of and the apostle clock is a wonderful thing to see it is more than a hundred years old. Their workers work very hard to present everything with a lot of class and they do a great job. The Payne mansion is right across the street so you can do both of them in less than in less than 4 hours. I think it's time well spent

Julie Morgan

Wonderful time! So much History and We loved the Apostle Grandfather clock!

antonia medellin

Learned many new things.

Wendy Nordstrom

Great little museum. Small but packed with interesting items and information about the area, history, native Americans and some fun and interactive displays. I especially liked listening to the native American speaking names of towns and rivers. And the clock was wonderful although not all the doors opened and I was a bit disappointed.

Steven Kortendick

Wonderful displays. Great Native American exhibit. Just was extremely disappointed that the holiday decorations were taken down before Epiphany. From the looks of the storage tubs being packed they looked very elaborate.

Sharon LaPointe

My grandson and I really enjoyed ourselves. The exhibit"Cemetary Tales" was excellent. Nice afternoon . Well worth the admission. Would definitely go again.

Mike Thomas

Very nice place to visit and learn some important Wisconsin history.

Paula Lehrer

Go check out the clock

Heidi Bayer

A beautiful museum in an old turn of the century home that is full of the history of Oshkosh, Wisconsin. There is a winter Gala every year after Thanksgiving is held to raise money put on by the lovely ladies of the auxillary. The decorations are very festive and they bring out the beautiful silver punch bowl that belongs to the museum.

Brian Kivi

Kit Pollaski

Super cool cemetery takes exhibit

Jesse Rhodes

I went when the admittance was discounted for the season, otherwise it might have been a little pricy to bring the whole family. Nevertheless, I've been visiting this museum since I was a little kid and I have always been intrigued by the new exhibits and impressed by how many things to learn are packed into this beautiful building.

Samuel Draeger

Nice public museum. Has a area with hands on things for the kids.

The Oshkosh Public library is a beautiful facility and the Apostles clock is timeless. Perhaps a little light on exhibits but a wonderful adventure to be part of.

Apostle clock fabulous !!!

Mike Rohde

Nice museum in a beautiful historical home, very friendly staff

Judy Hillhouse

Very interesting

Jaden Gaskell

Cool place to go to. It is cool to figure out a lot about Wisconsin and such. But if you are not a fan of reading then this is probably not the best place for you. It's got a lot of great exhibits and interactive stuff. My favorite was getting to sit on one of those old bycicles where one wheel is big and one is small.

Steven Bruss

Great for an easy educational outing with the kids...or adults. Really cool exhibits telling the story of Oshkosh history. Often has rotating exhibits that much larger museums might have.

Becky Whaley

Gorgeous 100+ yr old home filled with a varied collection of local history. The home's original woodwork, Tiffany tapestries, and tiffany glass is worth going to see, also have a great new native american exhibit with many hands on features. The 2nd floor has a temporary exhibit of native american art (closes 10-8-17) plus permanent exhibits, with more hands on features, of a frontier home and 'Grandma's closet' with lots of toys, dressup clothes, books to play with. All that PLUS don't miss the Apostle clock - it chimes at the top of every hour!

Tammy Mossholder
