Morrill Hall

Great museum to bring kids to. Lots to see especially if they are into dinosaurs. On the fourth floor you can see someone working on fossils and my daughter loved being able to see that.

Great for the whole family, it's a great way for the kids to lean about Nebraska heritage, fossils, prehistoric animals, plants. There is something for everyone's interest. Definitely a good spot in the winter time when you need something to get you out of the house.

This museum has an immense number of exhibits spread across 4 floors! Whether that be dinosaurs, science-space discovery, war artifacts, you name it! I was never aware this facility existed and my out-of-state friend that came with me was blown away by everything inside. The pure level of research, education, and presentation was impressive.Parking certainly was a time-consuming task for us as it was difficult to understand where to park for the museum. There was little to no signage except for "Faculty/Staff Only." After driving around for a while, we learned that the parking lot cut through around the construction and lead to the side street in front of the museum building.

What a great day for my kiddos! This is a good-sized (as in not overwhelming) museum with tons of stuff for kids to explore. I remember coming here as a kid fondly, and it was great to share with my children. They've made some serious changes since I was a kid, but some things are timeless - like the MASSIVE mammoth bones in the hall of elephants. My kids really liked the newer technology introduced on the top floor - some interactive exhibits where they can utilize microscopes, identify parasites, and actually touch/handle the exhibits which is always a plus for little kids - hands on is best!! It's on the UNL campus, so parking ended up being a bit dicey, but otherwise it was a great way to spend a hot day entertaining the kiddos inside with the AC!

I'm not usually a fan of natural history museums but I did enjoy my visit to Morrill Hall, which is on the campus of the University of Nebraska (Go Big Red?). Large parking lot but you will need to be careful that you're in a proper spot for visiting the museum as the university cops apparently do write tickets.On four levels with rocks and stones, bones and bodies and assorted bits of human (Nebraska) history. Interesting, engaging and definitely worth at least two hours even if you're moving quickly. There is a lot to see, a number of things to touch and a bunch of things to simply experience.The little ones will definitely appreciate it. And for sure, this adult appreciated it too.[Review 11387 overall, 1164 of 2019.]

Loved it!! Wonderful, beautiful, clean, friendly staff, very educational. Will be back!

Morrill Hall, and the Nebraska State Museum as a whole, is an incredible resource for families and visitors in Lincoln. My young children love visiting. There is a ton to see, and many interactive displays, especially on the 4th floor. Truly a Nebraskan gem.

What a fun place. Very reasonable admission fee and really neat exhibits. Can't believe I haven't been here sooner. Its very cool to see these fossils up close. Everyone should bring their kids. Not sure its a place to come often but you should at least come once. I didn't get into the planetarium but hope to at another time.

The staff were all really nice and polite. There were tons of fossils and animals. I loved seeing the wall of bugs and butterflies the most.

Best display of fossil skeletons I have ever seen. Very impressive. My only complaint was that the Native American artifacts aren't displayed and as a descendant, I am disappointed.
