    This is a very cool places you have any interest at all the history of timekeeping. One of the neatest pieces for me was the Engle Clock. A massive piece that plays music puts on a show. It's restored to amazing detail

    Excellent museum, much bigger than I expected it to be! Highly recommend this for the whole family. Impressive collection of clocks and art.

    This is such a neat place. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I took my two younger kids (ages 14 & 11) as a field trip and they enjoyed it as well. There is a fun scavenger hunt for the kids to complete. This really is a great place to visit, plan to spend some time looking around, there is so much to see.

    Absolutely amazing! Anyone that is interested in horology, clocks, watches, and watch making needs to go here! So informative, the layout was excellent, the collections that were there were absolutely impressive, and the staff is so friendly!
    The pocket watch section was the most impressive and has led me to a new found interest in them!

    This is the coolest museum I've ever been to in my life. The attendants are very friendly, as well. If you have any interest in clocks and time keeping, this place is a must-see. Perhaps slightly boring for family members if that's not their thing, but even my less-than-interested family members found some enjoyment. Also extremely reasonable admission price. Even if you go through it quickly, plan to spend an hour. If you really want to absorb everything and read everything and learn, plan to spend at least three hours.
