Artifacts from the last 100 plus years. A working jukebox. This museum was originally a doctors house and you get to see some of that history. Theres also a model T in the back garage and working printing pressed, going all the way back to gutenburgs model, and showing the evolution. The curators are eager to explain the history of anything you are curious about. Also free! Great museum!

Palo Alto has a few little gems tucked away and this is definitely one of them. While it’s not going to stand up to big capital city museums this is a fun way to spend an hour, with helpful volunteers on hand to talk you through the exhibits. What’s more entrance is free. Bargain.

Such an amazing little piece of history. You can listen to old records and learn about how the music was delivered to people’s houses before Spotify was a thing. Best part are the jukeboxes, where you can chose and play music of your liking.

Very Beautiful Museum. Well put together with amazing history. The workers here are very friendly and inviting and very knowledgeable. I also love that the place is wheelchair accessible.
