Great way to learn about Dunedin and also do some Christmas shopping. Many family members received items purchased at the DHS&M
If you are in Dunedin Florida and your spouse is shopping this is a nice place to visit. It gives a very good perspective on the history of Dunedin. It includes a "pram" a sailboat that could be built from plywood. The boat was a great project for fathers and sons to do together.
Dunedin has an interesting history and this museum offers up close and personal items with just enough information to make it interesting. There are changing exhibits. It's located in the old train station (very well preserved) along the Pinellas Trail. Well worth the time.
A funny and interesting museum in a beautifully picturesque historical town with boutiques, restaurants, clubs, cafes, and a very nice marina.
This museum currently has a pirate exhibit from Key West on display. Pay the $2 donation fee to enter, you will enjoy this exhibit immensely. I always pop into this museum while visiting Dunedin, great place to visit & explore!!
What a delightful town! Its best asset, however, are its people, who give new meaning to the concept of charming. Can't wait to return.
Stopped in to look around and was surprised to see multiple exhibits that were very interesting. Pirate exhibit was fun and a comic book/super hero exhibit was a total surprise but we ended up in the museum for an hour! $2 entrance fee supports this spot and absolutely worth it!
Lots of interesting and historical info on the Dunedin area. A must see if you are visiting Dunedin. Like stepping back into the past.....
We took this Walk with the Director of the Museum starting around 5:30 p.m. It was perfect to view the sunset over Honeymoon Island, Caladesi Island and Clearwater. The Director of the Museum was fun, interesting and so knowledgeable about the history of Dunedin and all the spectacular homes on that historical Victoria Drive. This walk also included their Wine/Art Walk, which is held on every 2nd Friday of each month through March and then October to December. Most of the stores and restaurants are open until 8:30 and offer discounts and a free taste of wine or gourmet food. At the end you meet at a designated business to have a drawing for one of 5 bags worth over $150. We did not win but it was fun trying and enjoying the excitement with the crowd of participants. We don't know when they have this walk again, but information could be obtained from the Museum which is also a very nice attraction to visit. They do have a home tour and Christmas walk, which sounds wonderful and would be fun to experience.
Local history. Compact exhibits with the items on displat telling the stories vs lots of words. Offers walking tour of Dunedin and even a special strreet one night a month on the sound that has not changed much since 1880. It has a Chapel bult a hundred years ago available for weddings in an exclusive Florida Hammock natural setting. Go visit often as exhibits change sesonally.
