Good museum
By ,
I'm not from Chicago, and I did not know Chicago history very well. Overall I believe the museum did a great job of describing Chicago's past - from start to the present. This museum should definitely be added to any visitor's top 6-7 Chicago museum's list!

Nice pictures!

The museum is a very rich photography collections and a tram… For people interesting in pictures and who don’t know to search online … But, I thought History museums suppose to have artifacts?! Anyway is very important to visit: there are people employed there that count on the entering fees !

This is a warning: STAY AWAY !!!
By ,
The worst history museum I’ve seen and I’ve seen some across Europe. These people don’t even have the idea of what a history museum is : 85% of the “artifacts” are pictures. It is lame! You can find more “artifacts” in a library or on internet... And they have the nerve to ask for money for tickets! HA!
