Harley-Davidson Museum®

A great museum showing the motors from Harley-Davison model 1, which is made in year 1903; also it shows special motors built for police, WWII armies, US mail, etc. the most exciting part is to ride on the newest models in the museum, also the hottest models. They are so cool. It is great to visit it with the children, they love watching a lot of motors and ride on the motors, they are so happy. The location is great, it is very near the Discovery Museum and Art museum, together can play for a whole day and have the great dinner and lunch next to the museum. The gift shop is also good to visit, there are 30%-60% off items, which is very good quality and reasonable price.

A Must-See in Milwaukee! The Harley-Davidson Museum is an absolute must-do when visiting Milwaukee. It beautifully tells the story of how Harley-Davidson began in 1903 in a small shed and grew into one of the most iconic motorcycle brands in the world. The exhibits showcase historic bikes, racing legends, and design milestones in a modern, engaging way. Right next door you’ll find a large shop — mostly apparel — and a great restaurant on the beautifully designed museum grounds. A perfect stop for anyone interested in innovation, craftsmanship, and American heritage.

The Harley-Davidson Museum is more than just a place to see motorcycles—it’s a celebration of history, craftsmanship, and the spirit of the open road. Every exhibit is thoughtfully designed, from the earliest Harley models to the incredible stories of riders who made them legendary. Walking through the museum, you really feel the pride and passion that built not only a brand, but a worldwide community. It’s inspiring to see how Harley has touched so many lives and carried the idea of freedom across generations. Whether you ride or not, this museum is a must-see. It’s an experience that stays with you long after you leave.

A great place to show their bikes from the very beginning of their production. They served Army, Postal, Medical, Police, Refugees and to take away pets or people. Visit it and know their bikes. I posted some important information as well.

I thought this was a very nice museum. It’s filled with lots of iconic bikes that roll off the line. The only thing is I wish they would’ve had some of the customized bikes. I understand that the people customize them by their selves, but they’re usually customized with Harley Davidson parts.

Informative and well presented. As expected some incredible examples of Harley Davidson engineering and design. An enjoyable experience. And the cafe had excellent food and service. I was disappointed at the entrance fee. Given that this is essentially a marketing experience - I think it should be free.

A must for everyone. So fun to think they started their business in basically a little shed size building. The history and displays are amazing. What a great museum and awesome event location. Had a blast!!

My husband was born on a Harley Davidson and he was like a child visiting the museum. There were so many Harley’s from every year and every period. There was even fun for the young ones (I’m 62) with a makeshift Harley to ride. There was also a special hallway honoring African American riders and African American female riders. I loved the exhibits.
