"Amazing experience! I expected to see a sports exhibit on Roberto Clemente but this museum is so much more. Our tour guide Patrick was exceptional at storytelling & showcasing Roberto’s life and humanitarian efforts. At the end of the tour, we had the opportunity to make purchased on clothing and wine. The basement actually hosts a wine tasting room, perfect for renting out for events. We definitely want to go back since there is so much to soak up!"
"Visiting the Roberto Clemente Museum in Pittsburgh was an experience that left me truly awestruck. Nestled in the heart of Lawrenceville, this museum is not just a repository of artifacts and memorabilia; it's a beautifully curated tribute to the life, legacy, and humanitarian spirit of one of baseball's most iconic figures."
"What a fantastic Museum dedicated to one of the great Puerto Rican baseball players ever to live. I am not a fan of the Pirates but to learn about the Legacy of this guy that is from my culture was such an experience. The great ones are always taken from us early so to have a Museum like this to celebrate the Life and Legacy of not only a great baseball player but a great human being and family man as well is much appreciated. All the tours are booked in advance. This is not something you can just walk up to the door and expect to see the museum. It is a non-profit so all of the funds do go back into maintaining the museum and finding more pieces to add to the collection. The tour guide was very informative and really let us in to the whole process of finding stuff for the museum and The Life and Legacy of Clemente himself. By taking this tour you will have walked in the same steps of many other athletes actors and musicians that have also paid their respects and came to learn of the Great Clemente. For the price of $21 in adult and the tour being almost 2 hours long it is well worth the price of admission. If you're in Pittsburgh this is definitely an attraction you need to put on your to-do list."
"Stopped at The Clemente Museum during a long weekend road trip and it was incredible! I'm a huge baseball fan so I was familiar with Roberto Clemente and his legacy but still learned from the museum's many artifacts and our excellent tour guide Vince. I loved the available merchandise, number of artifacts, and the unique architecture (museum is in an old firehouse). Great job preserving the legacy of a Pittsburgh Pirates legend!"
