This was an amazing museum. It is astounding that one person is primarily responsible for amassing so many artifacts related to one small American city. It is a testament to new havens influence on American culture but also to America itself. This museum has everything that you could imagine. Even if you aren't from New haven but interested in history it can hold your attention for hours. Robert Greenberg is a wealth of historic knowledge and his stories about the artifacts were incredibly entertaining and interesting. They have done a wonderful job setting up the exhibits. This is a very big museum in a renovated warehouse. So much stuff! Guided tours only. They do hold events. Show your support and take a tour. You won't regret it.

Robert is an amazing tour guide & full of so much knowledge. The work he has put in to this museum is incredible. I took my mom, who grew up in New Haven, & she enjoyed taking a little trip down memory lane :) definitely worth $25. Highly recommended!

The Lost in New Haven Museum is a beautiful, inviting, and unique space for visitors of all ages. It’s expansive collection of New Haven artifacts encourages curiosity and elicits pride in museum-goers. I’ve visited on several occasions with my students, and I smiled as I observed the excitement and wonder in their eyes. It was delightful to watch as students tried to figure out the use of early technology and vintage household items. I love Lost and I plan to visit again soon. Trust me, I think you’ll love it too!

An amazing space creatively designed to immerse you in the history of New Haven.

It is a "hidden gem" right off of I91.
