I surprisingly liked this museum. It is quite near a police station, and down the street from Temple. The displays are under glass, and it is easy to see a lot of it in a short time.

This museum is way off the beaten track. There is a wide variety of displays in a timeless building.

In recognition of the importance of this free education mission and of its contributions to science education and research, the Institute was designated a National Historic Landmark by the United States Department of the Interior in December of 1990
