Most interesting tour! Our guide Daniel was very knowledgeable about the local (and Florida) history. We recently moved to the FTL area and learned a lot during the tour. We visited the three buildings and had a wonderful time!

The historical society is comprised of a few buildings, although only one is open to the public. It contains a film about the history of the area as well as a few comprehensive exhibits. The staff I encountered were extremely friendly. Recommended for history buffs such as myself.

The History of Ft Lauderdale Museum is truly a hidden gem in the city. Despite its small size, it is packed with fascinating historical details and displays that provide deep insights into Fort Lauderdale’s beginnings. The exhibits are thoughtfully curated, with impressive pictures and artifacts that were an absolute delight to see! What makes this museum stand out even more are the outstanding staff members. They are incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable, making the visit even more enjoyable. Their passion for the history of Fort Lauderdale is evident and adds a personal touch to the experience. If you’re in Fort Lauderdale and have an interest in history, this museum is a must-visit. It’s a wonderful place to learn about the city’s rich past and appreciate the impressive displays!!!

What a lovely and informative museum. Actually much larger than I thought it would be. Start with a 10-15 minute video about early history and Fort Lauderdale. Multiple rooms showcase different topics of importance from early times to current day.
