Reviews
"Great museum, ample parking, friendly staff. The museum captures steel's past in and around the Mahoning Valley and tells the story of a lost era."
"Attractive venue for events of 40 to 60. Inexpensive hourly room rental includes table/chair setup. Catering permitted. Museum tour led by entertaining and highly knowledgeable docent included at no extra charge. Don't miss the steeworkers' changing room, the hooks and chains used to hold lunch boxes away from the rats, and poignant letters written by workers and their families in the early 1900s!"
"Nicer than expected. Lots of information, great displays, and clean. Two story building with plenty of historical items inside. A quick walk through will take 20 minutes, but you could spend hours here reading every sign and watching videos on multiple monitors throughout the museum."
"A hidden-in-the-open secret passageway into Youngstown's steel history. It was much better than anticipated! While small, it's clean, airy, and information packed with interesting displays and timelines. Great for adults and children, with some hands on displays. Parking during a weekday was easy."
"Learned very interesting facts about the steel industry in Youngstown. Helped me learn what my grandfather did for a living. Highly recommend!"
