Welcome!

Thank you for your support in 2017! We reopen Wednesday April 4, 2018. Our Spring hours will be Wednesday - Sunday from noon until 4:00PM

Admission is $7 for adults, $5 for seniors, and $3.50 for children (2 -16). Admission includes one ride token.

Please join us for our Superhero Training Day on April 7, 2018. Admission for the event is $6.

Volunteers needed

Our museum depends on the dedicated, loyal volunteers who donate their time to help us stay open. We are looking for ride operators, admissions clerks, tour docents, restoration team members and building crew members. Check out our Volunteer page for all of the possibilities!

Do you have relatives who worked for Herschell?

You can now go search for the names of Herschell workers. You can also give us new or corrected information and pass information on to other researchers via email.
