I am embarrassed as an American when I see our public sites strewn with garbage. Where are the cleaning people? There are plastic bags blowin over the grounds like tumbleweeds and refuse clotting the shrubbery. Plenty of people on duty inside.

Everyone should be required to visit to see how history keeps repeating. The main exhibit is very good and the current one on Reconstruction is great. Not crowded at all on the Saturday morning I was there. You could spend several hours if you have the stamina

So glad I stopped here. I was almost going to skip it for the Museum of the American Revolution and I actually liked the National constitution center better. The projection show was amAzing and does a great job of giving a quick overview of the events leading up to and post constitution. Loved it.

Cheaper to buy tickets online with the special they had going. The interactive video was good to do before entering the museum. Good place to bring kids to learn about the history of the country.

Interesting exhibits and an excellent movie, but very expensive for what it is. I had the opportunity to visit for free and I did enjoy myself and the approximate one hour that I was there, but when I saw that it normally costs an adult $14.50 I was very surprised as I would have guessed admission to be in the $5 range. Don't get me wrong, I do recommend everyone visit at least once in their lifetime, but keep your expectations in check. Don't miss the limited-time exhibition of an original copy of the Bill of Rights.

Soups cool to see them actually the papers, a little pity that.you can't take pictures but they are understandable when the papers get damaged. They also mention "we the people" where you get to learn from folk history!

Lives up to the hype of the only museum devoted to a constitution anywhere. Signers Hall with the life-sized bronze statues of the signers(and later signers) is a must see. Special exhibits on the first floor are always good

Had a good live 20 min show, but otherwise really nothing but a huge new open space. Save your entrance fee (which is way to high for what is on offer) for something more interesting or informative.

A great place to brush up on your American History. We spent much of the day exploring this and some other downtown historic houses. What a refreshing trip. Some much of our U.S. history is housed here - much of it I had already forgotten the details many years ago.

We only had an hour here but we could have spent an entire day between the permanent hall (free to explore) and the other temporary exhibits (which cost money).

The Constitution Hall (free exhibit) was fantastic. There is a lot going on, which could be distracting and overwhelming at times, but I managed it by sticking to one (either the inner or outer) circle of the exhibit at a time.

There's a lot of background noise and music from the plethora of exhibits, and the exhibit room itself is quite dim, but it was made up for by the probing questions and thoughtful interpretations throughout. We will definitely be back.

All of American history through the lense of how events relate to, affect, and were affected by the US Constitution. It was a unique experience compared to other history museums and had many interactive performances throughout the day (my favorite was the news one - actors portrayed many sides of controversial topics; it's unlikely that you wouldn't feel strongly about some of them). I spent about 4 hours in the museum, and only left because they made me. You could easily spend the entire day in this museum from open to close.

This museum has nice exhibits but it is touristy and overpriced, its definitely not worth the $15.00 ticket price since the whole museum can be seen in two hours at most. Its still worth visiting though, and the special exhibits are very well done.

Informative place to learn about how the different branches of government interact.
Plays with live actors provide another mode of learning. Special exhibits catch the attention like signer's hall. The view of Independence mall is worth coming here by itself
