Reviews of Reynolds-Alberta Museum (Museum)

Richard Clemens

Always enjoy a stroll through here. Lots to look at, very informative. I like the video booth seating areas, very creative. Things move around from time to time.

Pablo Gonzalez

Very good experience. They have some machines that I have never seen in my life.

Nolan Chamczuk

Nifty place, first time I have visited. Lots of great old cars that have been restored to pristine conditions. The Aviation section was also very well done. All in all lots of great things to see and learn about.

The Reynolds Museum is gorgeous. There are beautiful displays and cool things to see and do. Want to ride in a biplane? You can do that. Want to catch a ride in a Modle A? You can do that. Like interactive displays? There are lots of them. Enjoy history? It surrounds you. The staff is friendly and helpful, they have awesome presentations from people who know how to run the antique machines on display. There is a gift shop and restaurant. Lots of parking.

Great museum for kids and adults to visit. We enjoyed our visit.

Ross Ferguson

What a charming little find! Absolutely well worth the $13 adult admission to get in - lots of interesting automotive and mechanical artifacts to see right up close. What was really cool was the number of autos that were in original, unrestored condition - those ones were the best part. Would definitely recommend!

Plenty of variety, kids under 7 are free and highly recommend the aviation part of the museum. Main museum felt very nostalgic and very informative on every display. Would definately return to visit and see the displays on a warmer day.

Susan Godfrey

Nice museum. Would have liked to have seen the car I donated out but you can't have everything. Lots to see and very spacious. Worth the trip

Heathen Heart

Awesome time! We moved slow and took it all in. Easily took over 2 hours. Would recommend ????????????

Kate Quiban

Lovely museum. Well worth the 15$ adult admission. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly and the little presentations throughout the exhibits are interesting and informative.

Roxana Murray

A great place for a day family trip. Affordable and Kids friendly, with activities, toys and crafts. Great exhibitions inside and out, from classic cars (steam, electric and gas engine) to motorcycles, from harvest machinery to airplanes. Great place to learn more of Alberta history. Bring a your own picnic food or eat at the museum restaurant. Easy facility access and a chance for a plane ride (pay separately).

Joseph Lasay

Very nice place to visit. The displays are magnificent and informative. Worth the long drive going there.

Maggie Galipeau

Super fun way to spend the day. I love this museum! The restaurant is fantastic!

John Thompson

What a wonderful visit! We traveled to the area for a first time visit (due to Covid) with our kids and granddaughter. In an effort to give us a good visit, they planned to bring us to local attractions which included this wonderful museum. This little gem of a museum was a wonderful idea. It was apparently started with a collection of equipment and artifacts owned by a local gentleman (collector) and it is absolutely amazing. Antique tractors, heavy equipment, trucks, cars, motorcycles and my personal favorite...the aircraft. My "Thank You" to the community and staff for a wonderful afternoon. We really enjoyed it! On a personal note...the Duesenberg car was my wife's personal favorite!

David Mathew

An excellent museum for all ages interested in Prairie, automotive, and aeronautic history. Exhibits are well presented, with a good amount of information on each one. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly worth the trip out from the Capital region for both locals and visitors.

Romell

Had an awesome experience at the museum. The displays are in pristine condition and no dust. It was nostalgic to see these beautiful cars, bikes and aircrafts. Our toddler my enthralled. The staff and polite and helpful.

Drew Wilson

This place is fantastic! So much cool old stuff. The building and grouds were maintained superbly, the museun was very clean. Staff were super nice and friendly. I really loved the restoration shop viewing area, that is a great feature. Highly recommend this place, its kid friendly and a great spot to have fun and learn at the same time.

Geoff Berg

I really enjoyed it. Lots of old car, trucks and farm equipment. There was fresh bread to try. The plane area was quite nice too. I liked reading about all the people who had a hand in Canadian aviation.

Jordan Thompson

The Reynolds Alberta Museum is packed with stories and high-quality motor vehicle, agriculture and aviation displays of Alberta's past. It's well worth the trip and is an outstanding value.

Fox

Definitely a worthwhile museum to visit! Super friendly staff , neat stuff to look at and interactive displays for kids of all ages!

Maya Rash Gupta

Cute museum for car and history buffs! Child friendly. Clean. Lots of space to keep distance from other groups. The cars and planes on display are beautifully restored, lots of interesting old farming equipment as well.

Jody Craig

We visited Reynolds Museum today for the first time and were very impressed! We spent 3 hours there, had lunch, walked the grounds to see the aviation hall of fame and plan on another visit!

Brad Sharpe

This place was more amazing then I first thought. So many vehicles that you never new about! Just a definite must see in Alberta!

doug richards

Amazing place, a must see. Very reasonably priced. Plan on spending at least a full day, with all the information available in the museum. Just doing the main areas ( main hall and aviation hangar) , misses alot. Take the warehouse tour (extra cost, but well worth it)! The guides were excellent!

Kari Fenrich

Very well done museum with impressive exhibits. They have the main gallery that houses the cars, trucks, motorcycles etc and the aviation hanger for the planes. There are profiles of all the pilots/people important to the industry etc inducted into Canada’s aviation hall of fame. There is a theatre that plays three separate short films relating to the museum, a restaurant and gift shop. We were lucky enough to be there on a day when they offered a warehouse tour (additional charge, offered only in certain months on weekends 1 tour per day and recommended to prepurchase tickets online on their website as limited to 10-12 people per tour) which is a 75 minutes guided tour in the warehouse where they house artifacts not currently on display. Highly recommended tho you need to be mobile and able to stand for the full 75 minutes. No children under 12 allowed (and they would probably be bored anyway).

Kenneth Wyllie

Some very friendly, knowledgeable staff, particularly the lady in the aviation section that I chatted about Max Ward with. Museum has a nice indoor layout and thorough information is provided. Some staff were rather conspicuous in confirming that attendance was paid (if staff come up to you, stares at you then runs away, it's pretty obvious what they're up to). Perhaps a better CCTV system could be used so that the badges for admission can be viewed on camera from afar without the need for staff to run around?

Bang Nguyen

Cool collection of vintage cars, motorcycles, farming equipment and airplane. Lots of things to learn there. The tractor drive is also nice.

Kalinka Borissova

Absolutely must see. Everyone working there is welcoming and friendly. Lots to learn for kids and parents!

Kathy Put

The museum is a great collection of automobiles and machinery that shows a unique slice of history. The cafeteria is fantastic, way beyond what you'd expect in a small town museum.

Bryson Kester

Absolutely loved this place. If you're any sort of gear head you should make the pilgrimage to this muesem as the variety is unlike anything else. Friendly staff, got to meet the head restorer out somewhere we maybe shouldn't have been looking at old stuff piled out back, but he was just happy to chat about it all. Wish we could have been there for a storage building tour but they only happen every so often.

Paul Colborn

What a gem of a place! Had an afternoon here with the family. Very neat and tidy, great friendly staff. Nice little restauranty place, good washrooms. The exhibits were awesome to walk around and there were also little areas for the kids as well

Larry Lepine

Great history and lots of different displays. Usually have some that are interactive but that portion is shut down with the current pandemic

Alex Schmidt

I just love this place! If you are a gearhead or just love history, you will not be disappointed. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. If you want to do some research for a project, the have some great resources and staff to help. This place is a real gem.

Joseph Kalin

Have heard about the museum for years and finally got to see it. Why did I wait so long? A very well done museum with lots of interactive points along the way- whether using your phone to activate videos or "10 minute chats" with staff members about various points in history- it's all very easy to understand and learn about car, airplane and machine history in Alberta. Friendly and professional staff members. Clean and well kept building and artifacts. On top of that- museum was being cleaned continually and staff members wearing masks for Covid-19, felt very safe to be in there and enjoy the great experience.

Chad Babiy

We try to make a point of visiting the museum every summer. There is always lots to see and on the last visit they had an interactive trivia that our kids really enjoyed as well as a play area. There is some really interesting Canadian automobiles and aircraft to see which you likely won’t see anywhere else. Some of the vehicles had plaques with all kinds of details and history which was really interesting to read. Anytime we’ve ever visited it’s always been quiet, lots of parking and easy to get around and view everything.

spencer konoe

Great museum great staff kids had a blast

Dave Bond

Awesome place...very interactive. The displays are very well set up. The restaurant has very good farm to table food

Lloyd Zilinski

Lots of washrooms, an important but often overlooked feature. Home to Canadian Aviation Hall of Fame, something I didn't know and I bet a lot of other people don't know. Interesting old autos displayed. A slice of Edmonton and Alberta's automotive history. Fascinating history of Stan Reynolds himself, and some of his family. Also offer rides for one or two people in an open cockpit barnstorming style biplane. We went up, it was great, a truly different flying experience.

Darcy Daigle

Excellent displays, kind and courteous staff! There is something for everyone to see there. The pioneer stuff was amazing, I can't get over how hard the farmers had it so many years ago!

sean bergen

Told the kids we would go on a fun trip, when I said museum they were NOT impressed, walked in the door INSTANT change of attitude, by time we left all comments were "Next time we come here I want...........", Marvelous facility, Even better staff, all at a price point that is actually doable for average working family, such good times and even better memories, Thank you Reynolds!! Kids are 9 (boy) 11 (girl) no easy feat making them both excited well done Reynolds!!
