About

The Royal Ontario Museum connects people to their world and to each other

Story

Opened in 1914, the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) showcases art, culture, and nature from around the globe and across the ages. One of North America's most renowned cultural institutions, Canada's largest museum is home to a world-class collection of more than six million objects and specimens, featured in 40 gallery and exhibition spaces. As the country’s preeminent field research institute and an international leader in new and original findings in biodiversity, palaeontology, earth sciences, the visual arts, material culture and archaeology, the ROM plays a vital role in advancing our global understanding of the artistic, cultural and natural world. The Renaissance ROM expansion project (2007) merged the iconic architectural heritage of the original building with the Studio Daniel Libeskind-designed Michael Lee-Chin Crystal. A distinctive new symbol of Toronto for the 21st century, the Crystal marked the beginning of a new era for the ROM as the country's premier cultural and social destination.

This place is worth every penny. The ticket prices are quite affordable, students get discounts as well. The staff are quite friendly, there are signs everywhere so you can never get lost, they even give you a free map by the information desk. There are free tours almost hourly and if you get tired of exploring there are seats everywhere, which really helps if your physically disabled in any way. There are both stairs and elevators to all floors and all floors are wheelchair accessible. The exhibits are great, and the information provided for each artefacts are very helpful, well written and well explained. You'll absolutely love the variety and depth of things to see. One moment I was looking at the skeleton of a creature from millions of years ago and the next I was looking at medieval Knight suits! I truly enjoyed my visit to the Royal Ontario Museum.

If you want to know a place better, you must go to the local museum. ROM would never disappoint you. It's not only about the Toronto area, but also exhibits other cultures. There are some exhibition for limited time, which are very worthy to have a look. Students get free access on Tuesdays. Just go and find out what new exhibition is holding there! It is fun learning history by visiting a museum!

The docent we had was great. She gave a wonderful overview of what the museum had to offer and stayed after for any questions. The Paleolithic era collections were wonderful! They also had a great special exhibit (at the time of our visit it was Art & Power, a collection of indigenous art) which will not disappoint! A great museum for visitors and locals.

Truly should have left it alone. The old majestic museum was far better than the new. Tiny rooms now. Lost the grand feel it used to have. Exhibits are not as good as when I was a kid. Disappointed. Druxy's is disgusting food. Used to have a great cafeteria with decent food.

Amazing Museum with ecclectic collections ranging from Native people of Canada to ancient Asian art to modern Western design plus animal kingdoms and dinosaurs. The collections are displayed in a way that are both interesting and educational and I never felt bored while wandering through it´s hallways. Very nice experience. Totally recommended.
