A must visit destination when you visit the town. Only $6 ticket for adult
GCM has a lot of displays on local history as well as some nifty art work. The children's area is hands on. The view looking down at downtown Guelph is inspiring. The outdoor sitting/picnic area is family friendly. I am taking my 2 year old grandson on Sunday. I think he will enjoy it.
Excellent experience! Better than expected.
The Guelph Museum is wonderful but this time we went specifically to go to the gift shop. It always has unique items and we were able to purchase felt poppies for Remembrance Day.
Having enjoyed the museum many times as a guest and used the venue for a conference, we decided to have our wedding at the Museum and it was total perfection. Linda and her team took care of every detail. We had the option for an indoor or outdoor ceremony, and chose to have the ceremony inside and the dinner outside, which boasts a picturesque view of downtown. We brought in our own caterer and musicians, and the Museum took care of the rest, including the bar and setting up the chairs and tables for the reception. It was lovely to have the museum to browse in between the ceremony and reception, and the surroundings - including the gorgeous museum itself and the Basilica beside it - were stellar for pictures. Highly recommend a visit to the museum if you're in town, and as a venue for an event.
It’s my first time to visit Guelph. This museum introduces a very interesting history of Guelph town. It’s nice to bring kids there to get such useful knowledge. Also, there are some facilities for children to discover some fun there. Give it a chance to visit. :)
Visited with my family over a Saturday afternoon. It has three floors of artifacts and exhibitions that retrace the history of Guelph. Not a huge museum but definitely worth visiting. The staff is friendly and entry fee very affordable.
