Springfield Museums

Since their founding in 1857, the Museums have been a source of culture, education, and inspiration for the region. Located in the heart of downtown Springfield, Massachusetts, the Museums offer access to five world-class museums and the Dr. Seuss National Memorial Sculpture Garden all under a single admission.

 

  • Springfield Science Museum with live animal exhibitions, dinosaur skeletons, Native American and African artifacts, and the Seymour Planetarium.
  • Michele and Donald D’Amour Museum of Fine Arts with works by Winslow Homer, Georgia O’Keeffe, Claude Monet, plus world-renowned print collections from Japan and by Currier & Ives.
  • Lyman and Merrie Wood Museum of Springfield History featuring Springfield-built Indian Motocycles, Rolls-Royces, and historic firearms by Smith & Wesson.
  • George Walter Vincent Smith Art Museum, a Victorian-era single collector museum filled with paintings, Asian decorative art, weaponry and armor, and Islamic art.
  • Dr. Seuss National Memorial Sculpture Garden, honoring Springfield native Theodor Geisel and the beloved characters he brought to life in his books.
  • The Amazing World of Dr. Seuss Museum, a celebration of Theodor Geisel, who was born and raised in Springfield, which includes hands-on interactive exhibits.
