If your into collections, the Lightner Museum is for you. It is home to many interesting collections. However it did little to keep the interest of our group. It was a one-time thing for us.

On the day I visited the Lightner Museum it was not crowded at all so I practically had the place to myself.There are 3 floors of items to look at,all of them interesting.I really enjoyed looking at the room that was once a shower room in the old hotel.Be sure to stop in to the gift shop before you leave...

Very enjoyable, educational and diverse. There are a wide variety of pieces displayed. Everyone should be able to find something of interest to explore.

Nothing to dislike. The museum was originally the Hotel Alcazar built in 1887 and eventually bought by Lightner who provided the museum pieces. So, if you like history, this is the place to come. Their cafe downstairs in the swimming pool is great, too!
