Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

This is a thorough history of the city of Chicago and how global events and characters also shaped the region. The outside grounds are informative as well.

Living in Illinois and finally traveling to Washington DC and visiting Ford Theater and the Petersen House, I found out the actual bed where Lincoln died was in Chicago, Illinois. That trip was 8 years ago and we finally went to the Chicago History Museum today to see the bed.
They have a great exhibit on the Chicago fire. Learned so much from everything there. We also liked the information about Fort Dearborn.
We love history and we so happy we finally made it to the museum. It's definitely a great museum

We spent far longer than we anticipated at the museum. There are so many interesting exhibits, and lots to look at. We took a tour with one of the docents which was very interesting. This museum is well worth a visit.

Located in old village, a few miles out of the loop/tourist district, this is not the typical museum stop in Chicago. I wouldn’t call it a must see, but if you want to know more about Chicago, it’s history, neighborhoods, population, and how it became the city it is today, this would be a great start to your Chicago trip.
The main reason I came here is to see the Lincoln death bed. There is also a section on Lincoln’s Chicago. There is a prominent, poignant section on the Chicago fire. It tells the history, the rebuilding, and the long term effects on the city, but most impressively the exhibit displays artifacts from the fire: knickknacks, decor, melted buckets of nails, a burned hymnal, even cookies that burned so hot and fast that they turned to charcoal cookies.
There was also a section on polish Chicago, which was so large and detailed that you’d really have to have an interest in the subject.
There were sections on advancement of transport (trains, rail) as well as business (Sears, Montgomery Ward, Oscar Mayer etc). They covered several historical disasters in Chicago.
They had a small superficial exhibit on race and civil rights, though it was whitewashed and weak.
The Chicago blues section was pitiful and put together as an afterthought.
Some displays were oversimplified and almost geared toward kids. There is an actual interactive kids section. If you want to know more about Chicago, this is the place to start. Admission is 19 bucks.

2-story museum where a big majority is on the second floor. Sizable section with a walk-through of Chicago's main events and ways of life starting with the founding over 200 years ago to today. A separate section on Chicago retailers. A big exhibit on the Chicago fire of 1871. They have a kids' hands-on play area; not very big. Very informative; yet not a lot of hands on stuff. I say you'd spend about 2-3 hours learning about Chicago. When we went; there was a big temporary exhibit on Polish Chicago (there are more Polish people in Chicago than any other city outside of Poland).

Chicago History Museum is situated in the Near North Side region of the city close to Lincoln Park.
From the Loop, we took the 22 bus from Dearborn & Randolph to Clark & North.
There is a vast array of exhibits in the museum detailing Chicago’s importance as the crossroads of the USA.
The city’s past industries are well documented. The railways, stockyards, the early days of cellphones (Motorola) and the advent of mail order shopping to name but a few.
One of my favourite books, The Jungle by Upton Sinclair, about a Lithuanian family’s struggle working in the city’s stockyards is nicely portrayed.
Key historical events in the city receive much coverage. The fire of 1871, the sinking of SS Eastland in the Chicago River in 1915 with the loss of over 800 lives, the race riots of 1919 and the protests during the Democratic convention in 1968 are well covered.
I also enjoyed the exhibits relating to Martin Luther King and Abraham Lincoln.
We spent a couple of hours here and could easily have stayed longer.
Admission fee is $19 and the museum is closed on Mondays.

We stopped here on a visit to the city. It is a small facility with a few exhibits. Well done but not a lot of artifacts to bolster the stories told. Admission $19 for adults. Worth a few hours to see.

I am looking for a list of the patients at the Chicago Municipal TB Sanitation in the early 1920's.

Hello, can you tell me which bus I could take from Chicago Union Station?
The Chicago History Museum is a quick trip from Chicago's Union Station. We recommend taking the #156 bus, Union Station north to Belmont/Halsted, to LaSalle and North Avenue, right outside of the Museum. We can't wait to see you!
