About this place

A museum in Springfield, Missouri that explores the city's role in American history from its founding onwards, with particular focus on Route 66. Families can ride a passenger train, watch a Wild Bill Hickok demonstration, and explore eight galleries filled with artifacts, photographs, and interactive exhibits. The Route 66 section features a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible, neon signs from local businesses, vintage gas pumps, and the story of John T. Woodruff, the Springfield resident after whom the highway was named. Activities and displays suit different ages.

If you are a member here

A membership to History Muesum on the Square carries reciprocal admission, so the same card is worth free or discounted entry at other places in this program.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
