What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise the Sigal Museum as a gem packed with fascinating local history, from early settlers to industries and art. Its accessibility is noted, though some wish for more seating. A caution is advised for the gift shop's food items due to past expiration date issues.
"A small museum featuring the historical facts about Northampton county. It uses all three floor space to pack in many years of development of the area, from the people, the industries, the culture, and the impact of changes to the area.
We enjoyed the visit and learned quite a bit about the area in the short time we were there.
It a good visit for tourists and locals alike."
Credible Critic
"This museum is a gem. It is smaller but packed with interesting history of the area. There are three floors of well organized exhibits that represent the area. I thought it would take us longer to see everything but we make our way through the museum in an hour and a half. We are visitors who read everything.
The museum is accessible for those with mobility issues. There is an elevator and there are accessible bathrooms on every floor. Another note is that although there are some benches throughout the museum, there didn’t seem to be enough. From someone who has mobility issues, I could enjoy the museum a lot more if they just had a few more benches throughout.
The gift store has a fair variety. I bought Jelly Belly jelly beans that were listed on sale. When I opened them at home I noticed that all three packs were well past their expiration date. I think the sale sign should have noted that.
We would certainly return to this museum for the rotating exhibit."

"We read everything when we go in museums and it took us an hour and a half to visit this place. It is multi level but doesn’t not take long to view the exhibits. I really liked learning about the local history and industries. They also do a great job connecting the local history to things we use today.
The gift shop was a good size but had limited things for sale. I bought three different packs of jelly belly jelly beans, two of which were on sale. All three had a bad expiration date, even the full price pack. They really should have noted that. I did find a book on the local history for a reasonable price.
There is metered street parking in front of and behind the building and there is a parking garage behind the building. The building and bathrooms are all handicap accessible but there are limited benches throughout the building. That was a real challenge for me."
