Lived here much of my life and still learned some really cool new things!!Great exhibits. Well laid out. Lots of information. Learned a lot of things about the state they never taught in OK history growing up. Plan on at least 3+ hours to see it all and even then thats rushing.

Thoroughly impressed. Under $20 for a family of 7! We stayed having fun and learning for over 3 hrs!! Great for kids with lots of hands on learning. Even a small gift shop.

An Oklahoma treasure! It has lost more than half of its funding over the past 10 years and still keeps OK history alive. And, are in the process of adding the OKPOP (Oklahoma Museum of Popular Culture) in Tulsa across the street from Cains Ballroom, to open in late 21 or early 22.

It was really nice . lots of fun and interesting things to learn about Oklahoma .

We were given a tour and lecture during a Leadership outing and the lecture didnt disappoint. The passion and knowledge of the professor was inspiring! I cant wait to go back to explore the genealogy dept.

My sister-in-law is part Native American and I was sending her so many pictures from the museum about her ancestors (Choctaw) who are from the area! She loved the proper representation of her people and their stories, and she can’t wait to get out here and see it for herself!

Excellent, could spend another 8 hrs. there.

I agree with the other positive reviews. As a visitor to Oklahoma, the exhibits and displays provided an interesting view into the nations 46th state. Theres something here for everyone and research options too if a deeper dive is desired.

So much to learn here! Its set up in such a way that it shows history as more than just facts and figures but as a relevant story. And the story is about the state as whole throughout decades and centuries. It includes the different cultures of Oklahoma as well with the Native American exhibits, the vintage kitchen, the horse-drawn carriages, the television displays, and even a Sonic display. I thought it was really neat being able to learn about things about towns Ive grown up in and traveled to. Its definitely worth a visit.

The Museum is large, and has several galleries to explore on a few floors. The Exhibits are fantastic. Everything is laid out and organized well. In some rooms, there was too much stuff, but we did come out learning quite a bit about Oklahoma. We enjoyed the quick glimpses and the overview in all the rooms, but we particularly liked the exhibits devoted to OKC’s commercial history, the Vietnam War and the local soldiers, the 39 Tribal Native American Tribes, the Steamboat “Heroine”, and the oil and gas industries. The airplane “Winnie Mae” and the Helicopter hanging on the ceilings were intriguing.

Very fun great for the family

Waste of tax dollars. There is nothing interesting about Oklahoma. The gift shop is run by a limp-wristed weirdo, a couple of them, and the whole thing is way overblown. Red dirt, oil, and buffaloes. Then a series of exhibits detailing the decline of minor commercial consumerism. Wow, Im blown away by this treasure trove. And it is mostly just offices of over-educated pompous do-nothings taking every kind of government paid leave and program available. Thanks Pelosi.

This museum provides a good history of the state of Oklahoma. Although I have lived here 26 years of my adult life, I learned so much in just the first two exhibit halls! The museum is very well laid out and the exhibits are beautiful. I cant believe the museum has been open 14 years, as it is very clean and looks brand new! There is a good mix of interactive learning for adults and kids and view/read only items. Many of the Native American bead work items are stunning. The Oklahoma / Vietnam war gallery was unique, very moving exhibits to say the least. Fun to sing and dance along with the Oklahoma musical playing in the Noble Foundation Gallery. Outside, the museum grounds are also beautiful. Too much to write - I had a great afternoon. Easy to navigate, ample parking, great gift shop, lots of photo opportunities! The staff was also friendly and helpful.

We really ejoyed this museum. Lots of interactive exhibits. Great for all ages. Senior rates and military and veterans are free with ID.

A nice place to visit with lots of things to see and cheap price to get in too which is nice. I learned a lot about Oklahomas history. Who knew it was so cool?? Also, the lady working the museum cafe today was one of the nicest people Ive ever encountered.

Nice place. Perfect place for our OCAPL dinner meeting and speaker. Beautiful facility. Wonderful view of the State Capitol while having dinner under the Wiley Post Winnie Mae!

Very nice. Super Interactive for kids !

As someone not born and raised in Oklahoma, this place is really neat. I went for a staff retreat and was able to tour the facility. I cannot wait to take my girls!

So much to see in this lovely museum. There are 4 different rooms of displays of all types of Oklahoma history. This takes more than an hour see everything and the more that you read the longer you will need. I visited last week.

Went on a tour during school and loved it! Never knew my state had such a rich history!!

Never in a million years did I think Oklahoma would build something that I would enjoy visiting related to history. But this is really a nice place. Would I love to see A more in-depth and accurate visual depictions of the Native American culture, and the impact natives have on who we are as Oklahoman yes. But they still did a wonderful job. I would like to see more of Oklahomas truth in regards to the racial tension in the 1920. It should be displayed that we in fact had a race riot in Tulsa, that what is now know as Bricktown was mostly own and operated by black people. Maybe in the future they will change it up a little and show some of the ugly truth.

Great! Great ceremony!

Okay, heres a free trick, as you enter the center there are two feedback portals on either side, be sure to give the feedback after you finish the tour and Before you get into the gift shop, you get discounts upto 10% Youre welcome! Now the Center itself is Extensive and Beautiful. Book a Whole Day! Take the Kids definitely. There is so much for them to do with the Centers Hands in History initiative! I was tired from walking around the Indoor exhibits only! And then theres Outdoor exhibits. You donot want to miss this one. The Gift has such beautiful items, Do get yourself a Dreamcatcher! Or the Chiming Hearts!

Very rude employees.

Very educational. My kids, ages 4, 6 and 11 all enjoyed the interactive displays.The entire experience was great, staff was very professional and friendly.

Fun for the whole family

I had fun visiting this place. My favorite part of the museum was Tribes. The staff was very friendly and everything was clean and organized.

Beautiful museum, first time here with a field trip with my daughter. Monday kids are free so might want to plan for this day if you want to save a few bucks. Military vets and active are also always free. Hands on goodies for the kids. Sam Noble gallery was closed for renovations, looking forward to seeing that when we return. Enjoy!

Our family greatly enjoyed the Oklahoma history center

Governor Stitt and his wife as well as Superintendent Hoffmeister spent hours visiting local school groups here today.

This place is one of the coolest places to visit in OKC. If youre from here or not its a must see. I have been several times and always enjoy the changing exhibits. The details on the museum are my favorite part. They pay so much attention to every little thing. The garden is also beautiful and a great place to hang out on a cool day and just have your lunch. There is a cafe upstairs that serves basic stuff like sandwiches and salads. And even its fully decorated. The price is really inexpensive for what you get. I cannot wait to go back again.

Ive been to this museum several times over the years, and I drive up from Dallas to visit! My only complaint is that 1) they have a world-class museum with an audio tour, but they dont advertise the audio, and 2) most of the exhibits arent properly signed with the audio-tour stop, so you wind up guessing most of the way.

The Oklahoma History Center is a great place to visit. They have a brand new building now, that is much better than the old one. You can spend hours in here doing research or just looking at the displays. Every time I come here, I discover something new. I think you will enjoy it.

Great cafe, great research, and the people are awesome

Visited the Museum on a trip across the country, was a wonderful little slice of history! We loved the Century Chest Exhibit especially. Had some delicious wraps at the cafe on the third floor as well

Such a beautiful place to visit! Everyone is very helpful and we enjoy taking the grand kids here!

I loved it

The new Learning Lab at the Oklahoma History Center was dedicated today and it is beautiful. Thanks to Clark and Kay Musser for this wonderful donation! It is already being put to good use to share knowledge about Oklahoma history and family history!

Wonderful look at the history of our great state! Lots of neat things to see and several interactive exhibits. Fun for all ages.

Great place to pass sometime and learn great history of Oklahoma.

When I was there last I loved it very nice very interesting

Fantastic venue for a wedding or reception. Walking through the halls is a refreshing experience.

Fantastic museum! very informative exhibitions, friendly staff, free parking and very reasonable price for admission. Dont miss the exhibitions on 3rd floor!

This us a first-rate museum. Many very interesting areas very well aranged. Wish Id had more time.

I was there for a year in 1984, I absolutely loved Guthrie!! And Im trying to find out what the population of Guthrie was at that time.

Always something new and fascinating about our state. It will restore your faith in your fellow Oklahomans.

Has alot of Oklahoma history everything oil to Indian history

Mostly government offices and little museum.

GO. GO. GO. Always changing exhibits and interesting permanent collections. Membership is cheap for individuals or families, but you can go as a guest. ... DOING GENEALOGY!? Join Oklahoma Genealogical Society for not much $ but oodles of links, lectures, Webinars and information. ON-SITE meetings the first Monday of the month, 6 pm. AND get membership or as a guest. Oklahoma History Center has ROOMS FULL of information we can access on Indian Territory, Land Runs thru present day. Your relatives could be listed here!! Old Maps, Land ownership info, Documents, Indian Rolls, Oil Mineral Rights - sit for hours or days and do your research in comfortable chairs, tables, rooms. CLEAN RESTROOMS. ... OHC has a cool replica of Winnie Mae, the airplane flown by Oklahoma aviator, Wiley Post. I noticed yesterday there is an exhibit on pipe organs. What a variety of enjoyment is waiting for YOU. GO. ENJOY!

I visited OKC for the holidays & was looking for a place to visit. This place seemed the best bet but boring nonetheless. I was in for a very big surprise! This place is not only culturally inclusive, it is fun while being educational! My family had a really gun time going through the different exibits. Would recommend.

Awesome place for the History of our great state

Nostalgic Items, American Indians in Oklahoma history, great history library.

Good space exhibit and Native American gallery. Awesome research room for genealogists!

Has a lot to offer from the old West to modern and the people that work there are vdeat

A musem closed on Sunday? No words...

The staff was awesome, we were doing some geneology research. They were hreat in showing us where we migjt find what were looking for. And how to use the equipment.

I love this place. Its very interactive and is pleasing to look at.

Very difficult to figure out. The cafe was closed as well. Rooms do not indicate the displays, just the names of doners. For the most part, it is essentially a tribute to all the influential people who have made contributions to Oklahoma but not a complete Oklahoma History. Where is the mention of Geronimo, Quanah Parker, Indian boarding schools, imprisonment, Buffalo Soldiers? Why does Douglas High School get such a large display but I saw nothing about Deep Deuce, Boley, Tulsa Race Riots, this is not the Oklahoma City history center. I learned a lot about the Diffee family. Many of the displays were typeset so small they were not easy to read. Some of the objects were placed so low, only a child could see them easily. Im addition there was a typo of the word Earth in the Native American display. The languages and videos in that section were wonderful!

Watching the arrival of the HUEY Helicopter, escorted by the Oklahoma Patriot Guard Riders! The Vietnam War Exhibit is going to be excellent!!!

More than a couple hours needed, but a good place to spend a day.

Hands down one of the best places to take a family or do research.

First impression says a lot. I submitted my transcripts and resume in person. I see bunches of state worker screwing around and didnt take the job application seriously.

It was nice to see the aerospace exhibits. Keep up the good work.

Loved this place. Beautiful building, great exibits.

Great museum with great exhibits and a rich history of the state of Oklahoma.

Love this museum! Great exhibits & friendly employees!

Always a wonderful experience and a wealth of information for genealogy research.

Great place to learn about the great History of the state of Oklahoma

Ive attended several events here, and been on a few field trips with the kiddos. Its great!

I went to walk around at 816pm and was rudely told by staff that I had to be way over there and pointed to the road. He said there was an event going on and pointed to some cars. Im not sure what kind of event is going on where people walking by on the sidewalk, minding their own business is a problem. Wont be going in. Ever.

A nice facility to hold a meeting.

Great place for history buffs!

Great place to visit and always something to learn!

I go set a picnic table by the water fall on accasions
