	Map		Reviews

One gorgeous, historically important building. Inside, four amazing places to enjoy and explore.

Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal offers endless fun and learning. Originally built in 1933 as the Union Terminal train station, the building was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977. Union Terminal stands on a prominent location one mile northwest of the city center. Visitors approach the 10-story, arched, limestone and glass facade of the building from the east through a quarter-mile plaza. The dome is flanked on either side by curving wings.

The Robert D. Lindner Family OMNIMAX Theater is one of the most successful of its kind in the United States. Cincinnati Museum Center's OMNIMAX Theater surrounds viewers with super-sized images and exceptional visual and audio quality, making them feel as if they are "in the picture." It features a five-story, -foot-diameter, tilted, domed screen and one of the most sophisticated digital sound systems.

The Cincinnati History Museum opened in 1990 and is one of the largest and most significant urban history museums in the country. The Cincinnati History Museum displays materials and related aspects of the history of Cincinnati and the surrounding region. Permanent exhibits include a re-creation of the Cincinnati Public Landing of the late 1850s, where you can step aboard a 94-foot side-wheel steamboat.

Cinergy Children's Museum opened in 1998 and has since consistently ranked in the top 25 children's museums in the world. The museum's exhibits allow kids to climb, crawl, explore and learn about themselves and the world around them. Walk through a glacier and step back 19,000 years into the Ice Age of the Ohio Valley. Explore a re-created Kentucky limestone cave, complete with underground waterfalls, streams, fossils and a live bat colony. Interactive exhibits of the human body, a natural trading post, and migration and extinction complement live demonstrations from gardening to collecting and cleaning fossils to teach how all facets of the natural world interact.
