Free Museums Directory
Our story

Opening doors to culture worldwide

Free Museums Directory began as a passion project for travelers who believe art and history should be accessible to everyone. Today it is a collaborative guide that helps people discover inspiring spaces without the barrier of cost.

Why we exist

A surprising number of museums offer free admission, yet finding them often requires digging through local forums, old blog posts, or archived press releases. We created Free Museums Directory to surface this information in one trustworthy, beautifully presented place.

Our small editorial team works with museum staff, cultural organizations, and community contributors to validate policies, highlight accessibility details, and keep visit planning simple.

What guides us
