  An attractive building but unfortunately it's closed on Mondays so it wasn't possible to go inside. Easy enough to walk here from the independence square area (as long as you don't mind getting sweaty!)

  This little museum has everything from rock formations of the islands to cultural and ethnic makeup. A very informative museum. No art (section was closed)

  Popped in the museum early this year and spent a glorious two hours browsing the exhibits. The art gallery exhibits works by local artists and you see some truly spectacular pieces. Other sections are dedicated to artifacts from the island's fraught and storied history, and our incredibly bio-diverse environment. Please note: cameras are not allowed in the art gallery (for obvious reasons).

  Love the historical pics and stories they had. It had a lot of cultural pics from a variety of genre.

  We were pleasantly surprised, this is so much more than a museum, its a fascinating place that brings to life the history of the islands and its people, its informative, moving, creative, and covers people, Idevelopment, politics, history, art, everything really! We really enjoyed our visit and wished we had allowed more time, we had about 2 hours and would happily have spent longer. We would highly reccomend it to anyone interested in more than just beaches!

  accidentally stopped here, If you have the time it's interesting and free. Nice brief history on local things. Located in a area where you can continue walking and find nice things to see and do for free

  The National Museum and Art Gallery is a tired old museum, but worth the visit. It has lots of interesting information and exhibits but like all underfunded government project it is quickly outdated. The staff at the front desk were very welcoming and made a big fuss about not bringing in a camera or a fire arm! I had a camera and was told not to shoot any photos inside the museum. I found the geology and archaeology sections particularly informative.

  We would recommend this museum to anyone visiting Trinidad with an interest in where they are. The museum is free and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The art exhibition that was on whilst we were there was certainly very different to anything we had seen before but, again, very interesting. The museum is air conditioned which helps keep weary European travelers cool in the heat of the day.

  The museum has more history and culture than art - the history very well explained via pictures and tools, art not so much. The one art room on ground floor has paintings of local culture and upstairs is a contemporary art gallery.
