Pensacola Museum of History, at the University of West Florida — Attraction in Pensacola

I like the design of museum and how inviting it is as you walk up. It’s not cluttered and it’s well organized. There is a nice store to purchase souvenirs and other items.

I like that the way the history is displayed and I loved the exhibit on 3rd floor; Black Politicians During Reconstruction. I appreciate this display because it’s a very important part of US history.

I also LOVE the Trader Jon’s display. It’s set up as his restaurant. He was a very interesting man and they think he had the most rides with Blue Angels as a civilian. I think he didn’t charge for anything but traded with those in military. And he treated all the same regardless of rank. Seems like a great man!

I highly recommended visiting this museum if in the area. Don’t forget that you purchase a $10 ticket at the Museum of Art and can visit all museums. It last 7 days. The ticket on Sunday is half price because only 3 museums are open; Children, Art and History. But only good for that one day! You have to go see what this city...

We were trying to find something to do to get out of this hot Florida Weather. Stumbled upon the Pensacola Museum of History. We decided to give it a go. You can buy your tickets online for $6 pp. This price also includes admission to the Pecola Museum of Art and the kids museum. I thought we’d have time to visit all three but we spent so much time in the history museum that we didn’t have for the other two. First of all it felt like pure heaven inside compared to the outside heat however that’s not the reason for the positive review. If you are from this area and you have any interest in history, this museum will interest you. It goes into depth to explain the City of Five Flags. There are a ton of artifacts and descriptive information for you to see and read. Three floors of it. I didn’t quite get the third floor but two outta three ain’t bad. I believe that’s a Meatloaf Song??? I believe if you take the time to check it out, you won’t be disappointed. I highly recommend. Sorry, I didn’t...

On February 1, 2025 me and my wife visited the Pensacola Museum of history. Virtually no one was in the museum which was absolutely find with us as we had the entire place to ourselves with maybe 2 other couples. The entire museum was very quiet and peaceful. I have been to a lot of museums and I will say while this museum isn’t huge it does have a lot of artifacts that you can interact with and get up close to. The staff if very polite and the pricing of the museum was very cheap. We spend approximately 3.5 hours taking in every exhibit in the building and even got to play some ping pong on the third floor. Though we will probably only come back if we bring the kids once you have seen everything I probably wouldn’t come back unless something big came here. Well worth he the price, rich history of the city settlement in America, recommend everyone take time to...
