My husband & I went there when we were visiting Pittsburgh for a concert. Fee is kinda pricy for what it is. They have good exhibits, but it seems small.

Worked at the Carnegie Museum in the personal marketing department. The nicest people work at the Carnegie Museum. Love the Natural History. Great design! Kids enjoyed their visits there!

We spent about two hours seeing the different exhibits. The dinosaurs won hands down with the ten years old. My favorite was the gems.... More

I'll be honest: dinosaurs are cool, but I just don't get as excited about them as kids do. I think I was one of the rare, without-a-kid visitors there.
