William LeSure: Beautiful great experience
Ed Higgins: Great local history museum. Schedule your visit so you can take the tour of the mansion. If you like cars, it is well worth it to pay $16 for entrance to both museums and the mansion tour. The connected National Studebaker Museum would be worth a visit for any car enthusiast.

AnonymousDog: I wish this place had better funding, because it's a real treasure of city history and legacy. It is paired with the Studebaker museum too. So, you get broader history as well as homage to the company that created South Bend's industrial golden age.Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Not sure …More

David Gill: History museum demanded my protected personal information (part of my telephone number) when they claimed that multiple credit cards of mine did not work (claimed bank was asking for it). I was tired and not paying attention, but now very worried what they are going to use my information for. My cards work fine, including later on in the studebaker museum.

Elizabeth Aura McClintock: We LOVE this museum already! Thank you so much for building it for our community. I've arranged two groups for weekend rentals and booked open play spots. It is fantastic fun every time. There is SO MUCH to do and it is arranged really well. My 4 yo is so obsessed with "the new museum" that it's his new favorite local activity. All of our guests have loved it too. There's also a nice baby area for little ones. The volunteers are lovely. The attention to detail is amazing. It is simply fabulous in every way! I look forward to seeing it grow and hours expand so we can come more often!

Cory Beard: Great your. Felt a bit rushed with all there was to see, but overall, not bad.
Robert L Bruntz Jr: We recently held a wedding in the gardens of this lovely property and could not have been more pleased. Ken C, the Director of Visitor Services and Facility Rentals was terrific to work with. The gardens are so incredibly beautiful, it made for the perfect backdrop for our ceremony.
William Killean: Connected with the adjacent Studebaker Museum. Three floors of automotive history no one should miss. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Dave Barkley: I recently had friends say they went to the Studebaker Museum (which is on the house’ property) and didn’t take the house tour. They didn’t think it’d be worth the time. Don’t make the same mistake they did.This is an outstanding house tour. I love architecture and touring old homes when I can. The Oliver family gave their well maintained, unmodernized home, along with all of its antique contents, to the historical society. It’s a must see if you’re an architectural fan like me.

Abby Buell DeBoni: My kid (5) had a really good time here. I think he would have stayed all day. So glad they finally opened up again.Edit: It is small however, and our 2nd and 3rd visits were much shorter once the newness had worn off. Still had a good time though.
Mimi Fedore: My children are 4 and they just love the Studebaker museum/kids first museum... The kids mechanics shop is totally cool and the canoe and historic days area downstairs is fabulous.. but, if you don't know about the kids area you will absolutely miss it. Ask the attendant, they will point you in the right direction!!
David Hoke: It was nothing to look at. It was not exciting. It was advised as having a story time, but there was none.

Kristin Steffen: This is a great museum!! It's big enough to spend an afternoon but not so big that you get tired or overwhelmed. They have a number of moving sculptures and sculptures that are well lit and cast amazing shadows. I was impressed to see they have a Georgia O'Keeffe, a John Singer Sergeant and a Joan Miro. There are 3 levels so keep that in mind as you're walking around so you don't end up doing 2 sets of stairs at once and they do have an elevator! They were very nice to us and pointed us toward maps. They have a cloak room so we could ditch our winter coats and be comfortable. Bonus: it's FREE (with a suggested donation of $5/person).
