Come see the Giant Sloth! No, really! The Natural History Museum has excellent dioramas of the history of Iowa, and an actual Giant Sloth. Good for an hour or so. Very informative.

Took my wife and daughter had a wonderful time we will be going back very soon. We just loved the birds.
-
Every time I visit Iowa City I spend several hours meandering through this wonderful museum. It is a gem!

My husband and I have both lived in Iowa our entire lives. We visited this museum as children. One rainy day we needed something to do and went back. The amount they have in the museum is overwhelming! So many different things to see! Not many people know the museum extends into all of the hallways through MacBride. Some of the displays have been taken down for use at the University. Many if them were dated over 10 years ago. Also, some of the interactive displays don't work anymore. The university needs to put some money into the museum and it would be much better!!It took us a little over 2 hours to get through everything but we rushed at the end. We would definitely visit again.

Been going there since my childhood. Took my kids there, and now the grandkids. Small, and quaint; but the kids really like it.

A three story museum with the natural history of Iowa. It is free and a nice place to visit. My family and I enjoyed it.

I have to admit, I went for the giant sloth (super cool!), but ended up being so pleasantly surprised by all there was to see here. The dioramas are really well done, and the plethora of animals is amazing. It's such an old building and collection that they even have extinct species like the passenger pigeon. Definitely worth a visit, especially since it's free!Accessibility: There's an elevator which will get you pretty much everywhere but the bird wing (ha, no pun intended). The avian area is beyond a large classroom, and we weren't able to get over there. There might be another way, but we couldn't figure it out. Still, a great stop.

I originally took the kids I babysit during the summer here just to kill time. There is no parking available on site, however you can park on a street nearby for up to 5 hours with a parking meter which was a fair deal. I was afraid the kids would be bored, but I was pleasantly surprised. They spent so much time looking at all the animal displays, and the older one even enjoyed reading all the plaques. It is right in the middle of downtown Iowa City and a fun way to spend a summer day.

Great museum to visit with kids on a rainy day. My nephew loves the giant sloth, prairie setting, penguins and native American culture.

Took my family there and for a donation only museum it was pretty good. Some nice exhibits, but nothing fantastic. It was nice to get out of the heat and the kids liked it. Good way to spend an hour or two
