Science Museums

Explore this journey and discover:

Science Museums When it comes to exploring the world of science, kids love to get hands-on and NC has plenty of places for them to do just that. Or course, adults get a kick out of it, too.

Must-See Museums As lovely as NC's outdoor beauty may be, there are some stunning and amazing things indoors too. Visit one of our many museums and see what we’re talking about.

Art Museums We take our art museums seriously in North Carolina. The NC Museum of Art was the first publicly funded art museum in the nation. Visit premiere museums in Winston-Salem and Charlotte.

Aviation Museums North Carolina pays tribute to the machines that gave us wings and the men and women who created and flew them.

History Museums From firemen to movie stars, pirates to civil rights pioneers, North Carolina likes to celebrate heroes and history. Dinosaurs aren’t too shabby either.

Sports Museums When you’re home to some of the best racetracks and drivers in NASCAR history, Babe Ruth’s first professional homerun and the legendary Michael Jordan, well, you’ve got bragging rights!
