One of the best museums I've visited in the city. It covers quite a bit more history than I expected and is also very interactive! This is a great place for childless adults or parents with children.
The outside has some cool old boats/ ships as well.
The museum is located in a beautiful park and in an actual safe and walkable part of town!
Lack of parking is the only issue i have with this place.

Indeed an excellent museum to visit. It gives a comprehensive trajectory to Seattle’s history and development, from the native people, railroad building, Great Depression, two World Wars, and the most technical booming, I earned a thorough picture of how Seattle comes into the shape it has today from a land only having

Great Museum to understand the roots of the city of seattle. Has an interesting part about the evolution of the city abd its industry and special expositions related to the corporations estabished in its metro area. Fair praice, good service and the park can be greately enjoyed during summer. Highly recommend!
A very pleasant experience after a day at the lake, they offer student discounts by showing your student ID.
It's a fascinating and interactive museum, and it holds a lot of Seattle's history, so as a tourist or newcomer, it is indeed a great visit.
They offer audio-visual presentations to complement the traditional stands, from Seattle's starts to modern-day industries and facts.
The only thing they lack could be souvenirs, the ones available aren't really from the museum; they're more generic type souvenirs.

MOHAI is a must-visit for all interested in the history of Seattle . The exhibits are informative and engaging. It’s an educational day out for all .The museum is at South Lake Union neighborhood and the building itself was a historic Naval Reserve Armory.
I started to visit different museums only a few years ago. Before I didn't understand why people go to museums at all. I think it comes with particular age (it's different for each person).
You can explore Seattle’s story through exhibits and interactive experiences from Native Americans to uniquely Northwest Innovations. It's amazing.

Suzy and I visited the Museum of History & Industry in Seattle and were thoroughly impressed with its engaging and informative exhibits. The museum's comprehensive collection beautifully showcased the unique history of Seattle and its people, while also highlighting important social issues, such as racial equity. The Seattle history exhibit, in particular, was refreshingly honest in its portrayal of the city's complex past, shedding light on both its successes and struggles. We highly recommend the Museum of History & Industry to anyone interested in learning more about the rich history and culture of Seattle.
Love this place. Very well done displays, friendly staff and lots of open space to spread out or let the kids run a little bit. The history of Seattle and the northwest is very well documented with pictures and examples. When I was there they had a fantastic Ansel Adams special exhibit that was very well put together. The park area outside surrounding the museum as well as the lake and the center for wooden boats makes for a very enjoyable multi faceted visit.
