Wonderful little museum! They need better signage from the street, circled Stetson University several times before I found how to get to the entrance. They have a beautiful collection of minerals, fossils, rocks, stones, gems, etc. Very informative and educational. Wonderful exhibits and events.

Interesting exhibit of fascinating rocks. They have a large collection and rotate them out. The main exhibit had some really spectacular rocks. There were rocks for the kids to dig up. It is part of a department of Stetson University. Free parking across the street.

Had a great visit at the Gillespie Museum. Needed to kill time before dinner and looked up free things to do in DeLand, and found this spot. Ended up seeing a great selection of gems and minerals, fossils, and more. A favorite was the meteorite on display.

What a wonderful place to take the kids! So many simple but interesting rock and gem exhibits and activities. Though it’s not a big museum, it doesn’t disappoint! Can easily fill 2 hours, 3 if your kids are particularly interested in the subject. Clean, airy, full of sunlight, and so...

A wonderful museum full of beautiful mineral specimens, a must see if you're in the area. They have interactive parts for the children and occasionally hold events. There's a mineral shop as well if you're looking to take some of the collection home as well. I highly...
