The director was attentive and extremely helpful. Without the tour she was more than happy to provide, it would have been a dull experience.

The museum was a little hard to find behind the big building. The lady who works here was very helpful and told us a lot. Im still wondering why the museum tells people that Edison was the inventor of the light bulb, which technically isnt true. Edison made many inventions, and this museum exhibits most of them.

The Edison Museum is tucked behind Edison Plaza. It is well set up and maintained. The staff is very friendly. The exhibits are very nice and set so everyone can enjoy them. They have good interactive exhibits. This museum exhibits some of Edisons discoveries and early electrical distribution equipment.

No one here when I visited. May have to call someone down to let you in. I had visited two years ago from the date of this post. Shares a parking lot with other, larger buildings, so it may seem like going to the wrong place at first. Very informational, with plenty to look at. It is a smaller museum, but I spent almost an hour here.
