OMG I've been coming to Waco on and off for over 60 years and never had any idea this spectacular museum was in Waco. It's on the Baylor campus but very easy to get to with parking. The building is absolutely stunning like something you would see in Europe. Absolutely spectacular museum make sure you go to all three floors.

My son and I went with no expectations and were extremely pleased with the visit. A beautiful building with spectacular stained glass windows, paintings from as far back as the 12th century, meticulously engraved furniture, along with magnificent architecture and interior design. I was very much overwhelmed!!! (Should not bring young children. Not a place they should be.) Visit and be amazed! Definitely one I'll never forget. And no entry fee! Wow!

One of my favorite places, especially to study on campus. Always quiet and empty and, of course, beautiful, so any time I'm through Waco I'll take people there. Once someone was practicing on the harpsichord so that was a nice day.

This is an amazing experience you should see. There are items you will not just see anywhere. This is a tribute to both Robert and Elizabeth Browning. The items are rare and beautiful and should be seen. Come check out this gem if you are in Waco. It was free and a great history lesson for kids. This was a wonderful treat and helped us escape the heat.
