It's been a couple of years since the last time I went to the Pittsburg Historical Museum and I may be biased (being raised in Pittsburg and all) but I think it's a pretty incredible local museum....

This a great place filled with so much history. I strolled in one Saturday and ended up spending hours inside. There seriously is so much to look through and it really does a great job at showing...

This place absolutely rocks! The docents are knowledgeable and fun. I really loved how they set the place up with the real items and did themes. Great place to visit especially if you have company.

I enjoyed this place. It was very interesting and a docent was very informative. The collection was larger than I expected too. It's worth seeing!
