Museum of Springfield History: what do users think?
Peter Luwinsky: Whether you just visiting Springfield, or you live here, this part of the Springfield Museum complex is well worth the visit. So much of Springfield has contributed to the quality of life in this country, in addition to its defense and progress. Once a mega for Victorian and Edwardian homes, in the Hill McKnight section ofSpringfield, are still many fine examples of this architecture. Visit these great museums and you'll see how great life can be here in Springfield.

Jing Z: PAHMUSA is closed until further notice.In addition, Google My Business doesn't list PAHMUSA's hours correctly.Also, a sign on one of the museum windows stated it's scheduled reopen was 12/14. Sadly, upon arrival at the museum on 12/18, we discovered it was still closed.Reports from building employees are that the owner had to relocate and downsize all museum displays into a much smaller place. We need more spaces like this, especially in the state/region. I hope the owner(s) get the support they need to reopen. I did manage to take a few photos of the exhibits that were visible from outside the various museum spaces.LOCATION: It's not visible from outside and given they've relocated, I hope better signage, inside and out, improves so we all find it.Parking is metered.Stay tuned for an update, post re-opening visit.
Joanne Morah: So informative holds children interest worth the time aNd money
