Shared a wonderful afternoon with friends about the history of Burbank and so many interesting things about decades gone by. Definitely a treasure that needs to be discovered by all.

As a long-time Burbank resident, I was always aware of the museum but never had enough interest to visit it until now. What I experienced was not just a slice of Burbank's history but the development of any great city in the USA. There is the history of the founding of the town by Dr David Burbank and its development over the years to become the media capital of the world. Burbank has always kept its charm with a small town feel yet it is home to many movie studios and TV productions. It has its own airport and its own Water and Power. It's amazing and fascinating to see how this small town grew and what makes this museum so special are all the memorabilia that was collected for this museum. You'd expect to see old photos and letters but they had so much more. They had doll collections, a fashion room, several antique cars and vehicles that were restored and in running condition. There were several Rooms that were recreated with actual antiques to show you life in the early 1900s. This museum spanned two floors filled with antiques. There is even a home built and restored in the 1900s that you can visit next door. It would take 2-3 hours to take everything all in. The volunteers were very knowledgable and allowed us to stay a little later after closing. There is no charge to visit this museum although they do appreciate donations. I would say this is a perfect place to take your family or a date to. Definitely with visiting a second time too.
