This museum is one of the largest history museums in the region. It tells the story of the area from prehistoric times all the way to today. The building itself is pretty cool, with modern spaces and some old-school architecture mixed in. You’ll find everything from ancient tools to art, and even stuff about the city’s role in the slave trade.
- The spot is most popular for its massive collection of artifacts that show how people lived here over thousands of years.
- There’s a real Egyptian mummy on display.
- The permanent exhibition about the city’s history, including its connection to the Atlantic slave trade, is a big deal.
- Tons of Roman and medieval objects, plus cool models and maps.
