Theres so much to the industry of this famous port. Be sure to attend one of the guided tours. They will provide so much insight and original story telling. Its a real treat to have them demonstrate how some of the machinery works, too.

Great space for Stoop Storytellers. Glad to have been a featured artists.

My 1st time going and wow it was amazing. So much history and culture that i had not known before about our city. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. And the displays was amazing. The location is even awesome over looking the water and the boats. I really enjoyed my time there. I would recommend to anyone who has never been to take time to visit. They will be blown away by all the history and technology and industrial age that we came from.

This is a wonderful museum. Ive been visiting this museum since I was a child with my school and eventually have been able to take my own son. Some exhibits change regularly, but the good ones are forever. Truly a great place to visit when in the city!

This was a wonderful experience. A beautifully curated collection of Maryland’s industry over the years. We were attended by two extremely kind and patient museum guides, I can’t thank them enough for their care of our little energetic troop of youngsters. Add this place to the top of your list for great family and educational fun.

This was a better than expected experience. My 9 year old son was fully engaged for several hours as he had an opportunity to create and interact with several different exhibits.The staff/volunteers did a great job explaining things and bringing history to life. Currently, there is a video game exhibit which was a lot of fun for kids.I would think this museum is perfect for kids ages 8 to 12. Others would also enjoy some as well.I would say that a big part of this was the weekend volunteers, so go when they are there.

I went here with family from out of town. We were looking for a history type museum. It was great, like finding the kinds of things the American Pickers find in old garages and attics. From old signs and bottles from local industry to the machines people used and ongoing tours announced throughout the day that include demonstrations. I found it charming. Also, people are able to rent for events and it is right on the water.

It felt like I was in a time capsule. We had a work event there and I really enjoyed it highly did not realise how many companies was started in Baltimore city. The older gentleman that works there is very passionate about working there and has lots to say and tell.

This museum was super cool! The tour guide went over the oyster industry, garment industry, blacksmithing, printing, and they also talked about the great Baltimore fire and put a really interesting spin on it. Beautiful location, and definitely a lot to see. Was there for like an hour and a half with group from work (this place is great for random groups) and could have stayed twice that long. Also there is a cafe if you need a bite while youre learning about Baltimore!

There are so many exhibits to visit here. The staff was knowledgeable about so many different areas as well as the history of Baltimore. They are great with kids as well. This is a great place to learn many new things and enjoy the great scenery.

We purchased the Fourth of July that included parking and museum tickets. You could bring as many people fit in the car and a picnic. It was a great time! The museum provides a great space to accommodate guests. You can bring all your picnic necessities like tables, chairs, coolers etc and find a spot on their outdoor decks. There’s also a pavilion where you can “park” your family if you want. The Car parking was easy and really close. Wefound a great spot to have our picnic and just enjoyed our snacks.Then, we walked over to the museum which has memorabilia and artifacts from the industrial era in Baltimore. It was fun and educational. The museum also provided music and activities for kids out in the pavilion. People danced and kids enjoyed themselves. Everyone had a great view of the fireworks and the inner harbor. In attendance were an diverse group of families but everyone was friendly and peacefully enjoying our holiday. I don’t want to forget to add that the museum has great bathrooms too! I highly recommend for everyone of all ages!!

Some exhibits are hands-on and interactive. Theres a cannery, corner store, a garment loft, print shop, and pharmacy to name a few of the exhibits. The Decker Gallery has floor to ceiling windows and a gorgeous view of the Inner Harbor. The museum also features temporary exhibitions (Why We Work, Video Game Wizards [creating your own video game], and Dressed For Work).

Fascinating museum, not far from the main inner harbor area. A must see!

A easy spot to miss on Key Highway, but a very nice place to see the industrial exhibits relating to the Baltimore maritime industry. Historic tug boat Baltimore is there. A great view of the Domino Sugar Factory across the water. Easy parking and nearby restaurants in the Fort Hill area nearby!

It was lovely. I went and they had an old printing press which for some strange resonance I thought was the most interesting part. I have seen a couple of schools doing field trips there so it’s kid friendly

Very nice exhibits, my boyfriend loved all the eclectic and I fell in love with the cars. We touched everything we could. Note you can’t touch everything and it’s a bit of a struggle considering how cool everything is, the prices are worth it and the map around is really nice. Would probably go again.

Great venue for weddings, conferences, and networking events. Provides an interesting environment filled with past inventions and machinery coupled with views out across the harbor into fells point and the inner harbor. Plenty of area for party sizes up to 150 people.

A hidden gem museum of Baltimore. Interesting information and beautifully immersive exhibits. The permanent exhibits of a cannery, pharmacy, garment loft, printing press, and grocer are so detailed. The temporary exhibits are just as fascinating and interactive so adults and kids will enjoy. Plus, if you visit Saturday morning you can also enjoy the Bmore Flea located right next door.

Super fun place to spend the afternoon. Love the textile and print shops especially!

So interesting! My husband and I have been wanting to visit for a few years and we got a Saturday together without the kids so decided to finally check it out. I have to say, I’m glad we went without the kids. It was worth the wait. There’s a few things for kids to do but not really a whole lot and I would’ve been stressed out trying to keep my toddlers from touching all the things. Plus, it was fun to be able to take our time and really read everything with no distraction!

Nice place, but I would not recommended if you want to take little kids because most thing you can not touch which its very difficult to make a 2 years old to understand that. However, my 6 years old boy loved it because they had some big kids experiments .

Very nice place to learn about industry history. I adore the newspaper printing area. Great place for all ages.

A nice little museum, very interesting for history buffs.

So interesting even though it is a relatively small place. If you are into the history of how things were made long ago this is a place to visit. I would recommend following the tour guide and they know alot about what is there and how things were done. How they made newspapers long ago was my favorite.

Had a great time at Baltimore Museum of Industry. Tour guides were knowledgable and high energy. Cool space.

Super cool! My cousin had their wedding there and it was awesome! Being able to take a break from drinking and dancing to wall out on the docks was so great!

Fascinating place to explore with the most iconic references and displays. It was a pleasure to discuss our industry timeline with my granddaughter, and relish my girlhood memories of days past...beautiful@

Very interesting museum. Think it is better suited to bigger kids and adults. They did have a few activities that younger kids may enjoy.

My daughter and I had a great time looking at the history of some of the areas of Baltimore.

My kids loved this museum. Alot of great Baltimore industrial artifacts here. Its right by the water beautiful view. And parking is free.

Really great place to learn about local history!

Something interesting on a rainy day

Nice and VERY interactive museum, taking you through the history and development of the rich industrial sector of Baltimore. I recommend taking at least 2 hours to visit the place - as i arrived one hour before they closed and i missed few exhibitions.

We went here for a wedding and had a great time! Its Hot in there though, be sure to dress lightly

The Baltimore Museum of Industry is a hidden gem sitting in plain view along Key Highway and a good reason for people not to stop their visits at the more tourist oriented northern side of the Baltimore Inner Harbor. The combination of history and art is impressive. The recreation of stores and workshops takes the museum beyond traditional displays to helping visitors what a bakery, grocery or tailoring business was really like. Educational facilities include mini theatres and classrooms. Free parking is ample. The fact that all displays and activities are on one floor makes it easy to move around. The theme of stressing the value of work of all kinds flows throughout along with that if introducing visitors to the unique role Baltimore residents did play and continue to play in building the state and the nation.

Beautiful venue for events.

Totally worth the visit, very interesting!

Baltimore Museum of Industry is an excellent museum to visit. This museum is small but it is a great museum of history, a great exhibition with what a manufacturing method looks like. It is an interesting place for adults. Lots of hands-on activities for kids.

Great educational visit for all ages. My kids loved the make your own video game part the most, could barely get them out of that part lol great history of baltimore and beautiful outside view. Kids had a blast and isnt too busy. It took maybe 2.5 hours with us taking our time. Parking is free and convenient, great staff. Will def visit again.Guided tours are on the weekend, great fun for families esp homeschool. I enjoyed the history and the old photographs and old machines.

A unique find in Baltimore and well worth the visit for kids and adults alike. Fascinating history of the industries in and around Baltimore.

Fun field trip for 3rd graders. We really like it there. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable.

Good please to com field trip !

It was a pleasure finally being able to visit this museum and being able to reminisce. Even my son said that it was cool hearing me talk about how I remembered many of the items on display from my childhood.

A good value, helpful staff and centered on themes often neglected by other museums. I am always blown away by how big and heavy the hardware of the industrial revolution was -- its pretty cool to see it up close.There is a lot of description, yet there were numerous objects where my young kids were asking, How did this work? Or what did this do? I often could not answer. On the one hand, thats the point of the museum. On the other hand, I hope the curator can fill in some more of those blanks in the future.

Thank you to Kelley who made our special day amazing ! We had so many compliments on the venue and so excited on of our wedding gifts was a personalized brick ♡ Book here for any event, you will not be disappointed!

Not huge but very interesting to learn more of the industrial history of the harbor. The outside exhibits and the view of the harbor were equally impressive.

BMI is a nice little museum dedicated to the history of industry in Baltimore. I went for a few hours and was able to see everything at least briefly. Plan to spend a few more hours if you want to see more. It is a cool space though with lots of interesting stuff.

Though the subject matter didnt really interest me, I very much enjoyed this museum. Its affordable to visit and has several interactive features for adults and children. I would recommend a guided tour, as staff can demonstrate some of the machinery. The gift shop is fun to browse too.

Love it! Went to a wedding here! What a wonderful place. So much to look at and take in

Gun visually interesting museum. The entire building adds context to the industrial history for the city of Baltimore.

We went there after close for a work party. The exhibits were interesting and it seemed like they had new things since we had been there a couple of years ago.

A solid tribute to Baltimores industries both past and present. Make a day out of that side of the harbor with a trip to the visionary art museum.

You have to love this place uniqueGetting married here is truly an experienceThe staff is right on top of everything

Great place to explore for a few hours. I recommend taking the guided tour.

Ive taken my students to the BMI for three years now and absolutely love it. Its always so organized and easy to follow their schedule. The employees are friendly and engaging. I love learning new things every time I go!

I was here for a Christmas party - the company had rented the facility for the evening. Varied and interesting machines, products, and exhibits that showcase U.S. production prowess during the last century. Live demonstration of the machine shop was the highlight of the tour.

It might not sound like an interesting museum to some people, but it is quite informative and enjoyable if you like learning about the history of industry in Baltimore. The museum is quite expansive with many attractive educational exhibits. The city and its inhabitants can brag of a lot of firsts in industry.

Great, nd full of informations

These were some of the coolest pieces of art I had seen in a long while.

Remarkable information. Visually appealing. Lovely and helpful staff.

Great collection of antique machinery.

Small but packed with information and awesome machines! Would definitely come again. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. And the view of the harbor cannot be beat.

Amazing experience. I enjoyed the historical showcases. And the view was absolutely incredible! I enjoyed the food as well.

GREAT VENUE

Got 30 tacos, 10 chicken, 10 steak, and 10 fish for a work meeting. The guys destroyed them. We will definitely be going back!

Fascinating place for adults. Very interesting - especially for local folks who know some of the names and places memorialized here.

Its interesting for adults, but not for young kids. I wish we could spend more time there, but they were getting ready for a private event and it was kind of uncomfortable.

This is a awesome place to go if you like Baltiomore history!

Nice wedding venue!

Visited the museum from out of town. I wouldnt necessarily recommend that. If youre local it is worth a visit. It likely takes most 2 hours or less, but if you read every sign like me then closer to 3 hours. It would make a great date paired with dinner after. Those who are in engineering or in manufacturing will enjoy themselves.

Great museum expect to spend and hour and half to 2 hours here

What a great place to see: most people wouldnt imagine, which vast variety of technical products originate from this region. Aircraft, industrial robot welder, Head skis, type setter, Black and Decker DIY tools, and not to forget of course the never forgotten crown cork invention. Even a battery electric vehicle from decades ago is pn display. Simply by walking past the displays, there is so much to see and learn. Kids as well as adults will love it. The location itself is so cool as well: an industrial red brick building just by the ex-docks of Baltimore Port

Went here for an event. Neat venue and could be a nice museum, but the event did not give us time to tour.

Had a ton of fun at the Boeing Annual Event.

School field trip here was very informative. Learned a lot about U.S. industrial life during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Wonderful Museum to visit,!! It is small but full of interesting handicrafts to entertain kids. Will definitely go back there with my family and friends to have a fun exploration.

Awesome exhibits and very educational. 10/10

It is a very small museum with great visuals and hands on exhibits showing the history of the workforce in Baltimore during the 19th century. There are tables and other areas where people can use to eat meals. You would need to bring your own meals but there is a vending machine. There is a floor to ceiling window facing the Chesapeake Bay giving visitors a full view in which they can enjoy. It is a great place for all ages to explore and learn about the different kinds of jobs during the Industrial Age.

My sons school went for a field trip. I think the worker activity was so amazing. The kids really enjoyed it. I grew up in Baltimore and never went on this field trip. The extra perk was that our tour guide was so personable. She remembered kids name and really knew how to keep them engaged. Also, the space is gorgeous. Awesome views of the harbor. This is definitely a hidden gem for Baltimore. We need more field trips like this instead of the science center and the aquarium. I loved it.

I was actually the many months ago. This time I was just passing by on one of my daily urban treks (hikes). Yet, the last time I did visit the Museum it was a bit overwhelming, in a good way, as the was so, so much to see and experience. Its definitely a Museum in Baltimore which requires more than one visit to experience it all.

Excellent Museum celebrating the Industrial Era in Baltimore specifically, and the industrial world in general.

Wonderful exhibits that honor Baltimores significant industrial history. From canning of oysters to printing; umbrella, auto, steel, aircraft manufacturing; oil companies; B&O Railroad; Old Bay, Noxema, BG&E, Black & Decker, Bendix and much more. Baltimore was a manufacturing and industrial powerhouse and you can learn all about it at the BMI.

It’s amazing and I’m going back !

A very interesting museum with lots of different topics. You dont see many museums of industry around and its a cool idea

Iv been here at least 5 times and have had the best experience ever. It is one of my favorite places to visit while in Baltimore. I have done a few fieldtrips here they are very interactive and explanatory. I would definitely recommend as a place to spend a few hours.

BMI is one of my favorite places in Baltimore City. It is an incredible tribute to the history of our City. If you havent been there, be sure to check it out, you wont be disappointed.

Nice venue for an anniversary part. The food wasnt good but I guess thats not their fault. Beautiful harbor views!

Thread talk was in an awesome place. I love industry and technology. Thanks Ms. Angie you made the tour amazing

Went to a beautiful wedding here. They have a private parking lot, great view, and nice bathrooms. It is definitely warm in there though!!!

Came for our friends wedding today. The venue was beautiful and the staff was attentive and great. Highly recommend!

Very interesting place for children.

Enjoyed my time here on our school trip. Very well put together n the tour guides are very friendly.

It is an awesome museum to visit, small but full of interesting artifacts to entertain kids. Will definitely go back there with my kids to have a fun exploration.

I grew up in Baltimore and my family goes back several generations. This place makes me feel such love for a city that is seriously struggling right now. It has struggled before, and it will pull through again. So many firsts occured in Baltimore, and the BMI is faithfully holding on to an amazing historical record!

There on a school field trip with my granddaughter. Museum is fantastic, lots of actual working displays, great history of Baltimore and the industry it once and some it still has. Displays are very professionally done. Tour guide, Miss E, was excellent!

One of the coolest museums period. This place has good view to the outside. Its a good 3-4 hour visit and it has many picture areas.

Very interesting place. Well worth going. Especially if you like history and you have kids

Fascinating & informative stroll through Baltimores industrial industry

They were great people and gave direct instructions

Had our company awards banquet here and most of the exhibits were open for viewing. Interesting history of the area and want to go back when everyhing is open.
