Excellent, very informative exhibits on ancient Greek and Rome; other exhibits are not as organized but still offer quite a few interesting and unique artifacts to see and enough info to digest. The interactive features are also a plus. The building, while quite nice if seen from the outside, may need to be renovated in some parts of its interior, especially the second floor - it was a bit dark and hot. And I believe that most of its galleries would benefit from better lighting and less reflective glasses.
Just by the university of Pennsylvania you can enjoy the courtyard. Don't forget the gift shop and cafeteria
Came here as a group trip for Native American Voices. We had a presentation and docent led tour. All staff were amazing I think this is a must see museum.
What an unexpected gem of a surprise! Just loved the Penn Museum. So many incredible artifacts! Don’t miss this! Parking was very difficult to find though. Ended up in a parking garage and $22.00 later... that was the only downside.. despite parking...highly recommend!! ❤️
A great little museum especially if you want to sample various ancient cultures. Plenty of Greek, Roman, Asian, Etruscan, African and native American treasures. There are others, too. There is a sphinx and a gift shop to take a treasure of your own home. I went twice in one month and I could totally go back again and enjoy myself. Avoid the cafeteria, the food was substandard
A lovely museum focused mostly on antiquity and native American artifacts. The rotonda with the Chinese collection is gorgeous.
