This is a little-known Columbus gem. Father Lutz has put together a remarkable collection, and the tour was educational, entertaining and spiritual all at once. Highly recommended.

Extraordinary collection of items, not just for Catholics. One room full of old bibles, Catholic and Protestant and even a room of Jewish artifacts. Make sure to take the tour as Father Kevin is not only full of knowledge but very entertaining. Even our teenage sons enjoyed the excursion. Visited on Saturday January 3, 2015.

Their website said the museum hours are from 10-3 with tours at 1pm so we assumed you could do a self-guided tour. We got there at 11 and the doors were locked so we had to get someone from the soup kitchen to call up to the museum to let us in. Once we got in we were given a guided tour even though it was not time, everyone was very kind and well-informed of all of the museum's artificacts. We highly enjoyed are visit and we even got a gentleman to play the old pipe organ for us which was incredible. It is definitely a diamond in the rough!!

Marvelous collection of rescued church artifacts, fixtures and holy articles housed in an old school which happens to be fireproof. Take a guided tour to hear where from and how the treasures were acquired. We were fortunate to have Shawn as our guide who also played the various pipe organs in the collection. This repository is truly a jewel to be seen when in Columbus!

I have been living in Columbus for decades but had not ever visited the museum. I now know it will be on the top of my list to take friends and family. It is an incredible collection with something to interest everyone. You really don't want to miss this if you visit Columbus. Don't be fooled when you look form the outside. You have to go in, you will be glad you did.

Knights of Columbus Council 5801 from St. Matthew the Apostle parish in Gahanna enjoyed Fr. Lutz's extensive tour of the museum. What a fabulous collection of Catholic treasures, from centuries-old Bibles to historic vestments and vessels, to a replica of an old Catholic school classroom. Our tour lasted about 90 minutes, and we could have stayed another few hours, there is so much to see! Put it on your must-see list and visit soon!

We had the distinct pleasure of taking a tour of the Jubilee Museum today with the founder and curator, Fr. Lutz. All the reviewers so far have noted the fantastic collection of religious art, including historic Bibles and prayerbooks, altarpieces, and vestments. It is impossible to overstate what a treasure this collection is. What also needs to be said is the joy that Fr. Lutz takes in explaining what is essentially his collection to guests. He had a story, often poignant, about how he acquired each piece, and what it means to him. The first stop on the tour was a room that contained the altar, rail, windows, lights and pews from a demolished Catholic church that Fr. Lutz had painstakingly acquired and reunited piece by piece. He demonstrated an organ that had been lovingly reassembled after being rescued from a condemned chapel. He leafed through pages of a 17th century Bible. He invited us to touch and explore different pieces of art that you could never get close to at any other museum, all the while reminding us that "this is a friendly museum!" And indeed, with Fr. Lutz giving the tour, it is!

Fr. Lutz, the curator, has a story for each item inside the museum. From Papal relics/items to the collection of dolls dressed as nuns, from historical stained glass windows to listning him play some old pipe organs, it is history (and historical items) waiting to be seen. If anybody who is into history, and not even Catholic, should check out the collection of Fr. Lutz. This Catholic museum brings back us back in time and helps us enjoy God's marvelous creation through mankind's talents, artistic work or thoughts put into books/recordings throughout the years.

We were the only visitors here on a snowy day, but Mary and her colleagues graciously welcomed and gave us a very informative tour. This converted high school deceptively hides a wealth of beautiful treasures and relics from and from what I saw, as early as 3rd century Byzantine era. Admission is free and they only ask for donations. There is definite value in revisiting due to how it is a dynamic museum - they are donating away and receiving and acquiring new items. As other reviewers have indicated, definitely one of the best hidden treasures in Columbus!

Probably one of the most comprehensive collections of Catholic art and artifacts outside of the Vatican museum. It's a former Catholic high school literally filled with exhibits and displays. Not to be missed!
