Visiting Renton History Museum was worth every minute. The staff is nice and the exhibits were informative and interesting. We even took a walk after our visit to see the building that used to be the Renton Theater.

It was free for us today, which is good because if Id had to pay for my family and I, Id have expected more. Its quite small and simple as far as museum experiences go. We enjoyed the D&D exhibit, though it was missing a few important pieces of D&D history (like the red box Basic set).

It is a nice small museum. One of the better ones I have seen for smaller towns. I like that they have rotating exhibits every few months making it worth revisiting.

Wonderful little museum to give quick and fun background on Renton, all at a small price. The people who work there are kind and helpful. A portion of the displays change every quarter or so. Definitely recommend this place.

This history museum is too small for me. There are some nice displays to go along with the stories of Rentons history.

Great experience! Well worth the money, and it doesnt look very big from the outside but it is huge inside. Its sad that they dont have much customers so you will most likely have the entire place to yourself.
