Cruiser Olympia and Submarine Becuna at Independence Seaport Mus

Address: 211 S Christopher Columbus Blvd, Philadelphia, PA 19148, USA

Museum

“One has to visit a lot of museum ships in the United States and know a bit about American naval history to realize just how special Cruiser Olympia is. She's the only vessel of her class preserved from her period in history, which represents an interesting transition, from some traditional components found on ships before her, like her auxiliary sail rig to more modern features like her rapid-fire guns. Looking at some of her staterooms and the abundance of wood still aboard, things you will see far little of aboard Word War 2 ships or the modernized World War 1 ships still left like USS Texas. And you see a lot more brass and bronze here too. Even her paint job is that of the Great White Fleet pre-World War 1. It is astounding to have her to tour. These photos date to a trip in 2006.”

Museum

“Excellent family museum. Rare and interesting specimens (both skeleton and taxidermy). The presentation of these is very nice. The butterfly room is awesome for all ages. It's like a miniature version of Butterfly World (an indoor museum down in Florida), with live animals flying around as you walk through. For kids there are some interactive exhibits and some small animals to observe. The "big dig" (a fossil excavation exercise) is particularly great for young ones.”

“Our family loved it here! One five year old and one 16 month old. We were blown away by he variety of amazing interactive exhibits. The train room and machine room were big hits. The brain exhibit was very cool, too. As was Newton's loft. The food was pretty good in the cafe, which was a nice surprise. We will definitely be back!”
