This place is a kick in the pants, super fascinating, spectacular fun. Troll dolls first came onto the market in 1959. By 1964, I was 5 and all my little friends and I had our troll doll key chains. It was a must in the 60s or you just weren't cool. A changing industry and a third Tolls movie is coming out in 2023. You might be thinking the 12$ admission is a bit pricey but it is a guided tour. You have to see the collection to appreciate the time, energy, thoughtfulness and research gone into this museum. Even if you think your not a troll doll person, it is still worthwhile. And grab a coffee, tea, or other beverage while your there. You won't regret a visit.

A very unique experience! Truely one of a kind place and great if you love the strange and unusual. The only bad part is your kids will want to touch everything and they can't. I was also disappointed that after we paid my son was too scared to go through so he and my husband just stayed in the gift shop the entire time and weren't offered a refund. The woman who owns the place doesn't seem like a kid person either, which is strange for someone who owns a toy museum. She would probably have more returning customers if she were a bit more friendly and polite but maybe she was having a bad day....

This place is every bit as cool as it sounds! Very nice/friendly staff, really cool gift shop, and so many trolls you likely won’t even see them all. The coffee is surprisingly very good. I had the mocha coffee - it was fantastic. I’ll come back here whenever I’m in the area.

What a wild experience. The tour costs money. The Troll Hole Museum is the World's Largest Troll Collection that includes 9,001 unique trolls and over 48,000 trolls. The tour guide had audio that played during ther tour which was a new experience.

This was an experience like none other. If you find yourself nearby or looking for a destination to check out, grab a bite, and even a coffee all made in house. I definitely recommend stopping in. There's a small charge for the tour but it's worth it. It's a bizarre adventure.

I love the Troll Hole museum. You could do the tour more than once and still see new things you didn't catch the first time. The rooms are all uniquely themed including a whole cabin in the woods, a treasure trove and troll bridge, and rooms filled from floor to ceiling with troll dolls. The coffees and waffles from the Grumpy Troll Cafe are excellent and brewed and made to order. The gift shop has trolls for sale but also lot of neat gifts and souvenirs to take home. There's definitely something about the trolls that keeps you coming back.

I'm kinda poker face person and didn't know much about Trolls, but this place has me smiley. Gracious and full of details for all family. Go do the tour, it is a hidden gem.

Highly recommend visiting the Troll Museum in Alliance! The atmosphere was pleasant and cozy, and the employees were extremely welcoming. The cafe in the back was cute and we had some coffee during our tour. Roy, our tour guide, was insightful and had a great passion for the local history. He made our whole experience even better! It was lovely talking with him and his brother and plan on coming back soon with the rest of our family.

Definitely had an amazing time visiting with my husband. The care the staff has for every troll in the collection and every item waiting for a home is amazing. They made sure we felt welcomed and had a wonderful time! We will definitely be back and spread the word! Worth 10 stars in my book.

So many trolls! The tour was awesome, the gentleman guide was really cool I learned a lot. I will def recommend to everyone to go!

This place was so fun! She has had the World Records for trolls over 9k of them everywhere! Very creative set up of different rooms! Definitely worth the visit!

Alliance is the troll capital of the world, the largest collection of trolls, and has a troll hall of fame. The tour could have been better. The woman kept telling us how she got everything for free and the prices she did pay for ones. Was disappointing when you got to the gift shop. And the gift shop isn't focused only on trolls like it should be. You can street park right out front. Tour is guided. Shelves go up so high you cannot see them all. Admission is $12 a person. And you start and exit tour to the museum thru the gift shop. Expect to spend a minimum of an hour here.

Oh my gosh, what a fun place! I had my reservations, but now I will recommend this to everyone. There is an almost overwhelming number of trolls (as well as nostalgia!) to be seen, with trolls from the 60s through today. The dedication to creating the various spaces (of which there are about 15) was tremendous. You could literally spend weeks in here and not see everything! On top of that, the tour guide was super nice and had lots of great facts to add. Definitely a place to stop if you're nearby!

The 2 young men that took us on a tour were awesome. Well worth the nostalgia.

Had a great time! The tour guide takes you through the museum which has over 40 thousand pieces of troll memorabilia and dolls. They walk you through the history of the toys and then educate you on the origins of Trolls in folklore and traditionally made dolls. There's a cafe in the gift shop with gourmet coffee that's definitely worth the visit, even if you don't want a tour of the museum.

Kids loved it. Way more stuff to see then we all expected. Staff was friendly.

Fantastic and unique experience. Expect to not only to see a unquie and large collection of trolls but learn about the lore and history of troll making as well.

My family enjoyed it. However I think it's a bit over priced. I wish they guided tour gave you a bit more time to look around, (the history section was kinda glosses over.) Or let you walk through by yourself. Other places like this let you walk through the exhibits at your own pace. If you were able to walk through at your own pace I would not think it was over priced.

Such a fun experience! Went today with a group of 18 older adults. It is a great experience for kids of ALL ages. Our guide Jessy was very personable and informative. The tour is a minimum of 45 minutes so may not be so good for toddlers.

Exceeded my expectations by a mile. This is a super unique, fun, and charming attraction and I am so glad I went. Received a great tour from Roy. The collection is huge and spans several rooms, including many intricate dioramas and themed rooms. Absolutely everything that a quirky museum should be🩷

I wasn’t sure if I wanted to visit this museum, but I was visiting the cat museum just a few steps away, so I thought I’d give it a try. This nutty little museum is a delight! And the people who work there are charming and fun. I must admit, I’m not into troll dolls, but the collection is so impressive and the information is really interesting. So if you’re in Alliance, Ohio, don’t miss this little treasure. The gift shop alone is a feast for the eyes.

This place was adorable. We went there to check out the trolls, not knowing they also gave out tours. The entire upstairs was like walking through the history of trolls. Our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate. It was a fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

What a cool spot! A hidden gem that is not only entertaining but educational. Fun for all generations of the family. Love the quality of the tour and the creativity of the design.

Amazing collection! This is a must see hidden gem. The museum is extremely impressive. The coffee is delicious. The people are delightful. Highly recommend!

Weird and wacky but the kids love it and it has become a staple of downtown Alliance, OH

Found by complete accident and an hour and a half later, we realized it was one of favorite stops on our weekend trip. The curator is COMPLETELY into this which makes it even cooler. More Troll stuff than I knew existed. WELL WORTH a stop !

While I was in town for work, I needed to kill some time my last day in town and after googling what I could do, I landed up at the Troll Hole. I had low expectations going in, but I never would have guessed how awesome this place turned out to be. They have a guided tour that lasts about 45 minutes and it is extremely informative. They not only talk about trolls as the toy, but also history, mythology, etc. I definitely recommend checking this place out if you have the time to do so!

Lots of trolls and amazing

Very interesting. Large collection of just about any Troll doll made. Grouped nicely so that you could enjoy the evolution of them. Learned all about the history of Trolls. Yes they do exist!!! Grandkids (5 thru 11) loved the tour. 5 kids, 3 adults $60. Well worth it. Will be going back to shop at their store. So many fun and unique items for gifts.

Great place and fun for the whole family! Definitely check it out!

The museum was a lot of fun. It was neat to learn how trolls are viewed in various cultures. Be sure to send all your unwanted trolls to them!

This place surpassed my expectations. It was worth the 4 hour drive round trip! I highly recommend this unique experience.

Largest display of trolls. Great tour with lots of information and history of trolls.

Unique experience,one of a kind. If you are aTroll collector it's a must see.

If you like trolls this place will be a dream come true for you! If you are just curious about what's going on there, it's worth it if you are in the area. The 60 min tour is shorter if there are only 2 of you. The gift shop is full of fun finds. I even got a buffalo bills troll (my mom wanted one too but there was only one). Do not... I repeat do not get the tumeric latte. Unless you enjoy the taste and texture of gravy as a drink. My husbands dirty chi latte was a much better choice.

Fun stop and interesting museum! Great gift shop

Cute place! Take the tour 🙂

Great little place to go. Awesome collection and very knowledgeable and friendly staff

Interesting place

I cannot express how much fun the troll hole museum is! We had a blast learning about all the different mythology and lore from all the different countries and seeing all the different types of troll dolls!

Never been inside this place, bout the outside and property looks amazing!

The Troll Hole was a great experience. Our tour guide was full of knowledge and we learned a lot of fun facts. The displays are so intricate and the collection is massive.

It is a fantastic experience. Much more to see than you think. A fun atmosphere, positive vibes and you can shop for your troll fix whether you're young or old. Also able to grab your troll coffee or teas. Add to the experience and check out Wisecracks Comedy Escape Room or Mad Dogs/Crazy Cats. You won't regret a minute of it!

Most underrated leisure destination in Alliance? I think so! Troll hole museum is so much fun, and a must for kids and parents alike! Gift shop, cafe, museum it's all great. Take a stroll through the troll hole and have fun!

Needed coffee while roadtripping east. This small business came in clutch. Very unique. Just stop by for a visit. Trolls 10/10 Coffee 8/10

It was very interesting and had a lot of history in it. I especially liver the amount or rocks and stones in there as well and their different uses

Beautiful, loving, caring and dedicated to not only the magical world of trolls but to cats that need homes. They are happy, healthy, safe, and at home.

This is an interesting and different experience! If you have kids, take them here! My wife and I enjoyed it. The owner gave our tour and was very nice. *There are steps so may not be handicap friendly*

The museum was what I expected, which isnt a bad thing. What made it fun was our guide (with the beard). He knew everything about everything troll and we learned a lot. Keep up the town revitalization effort. This is worth a stop as it is certainly unique. Dog friendly certainly helped as we could get ours out of the house.

Loved the Troll hole, so many trolls. I especially like the art work and folklore! And the hidden trolls in the rocks exhibit!

It's a super cute museum. The tour guide was super knowledgeable and you will learn quite a lot about the history of trolls in general. From the folklore to the toys.

Did not get to take the tour, but the people at the museum are delightful and make a good cup of coffee.

I could be in there all day!!!!

This place is truly a hidden gem! It’s packed full of trolls of all shapes, sizes, and colors. The employees are very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the collection as well as various myths and legends. The tour was very informative, interesting, and fun. I was also excited to see the trolls from my childhood on sale in the gift shop.

What a great little spot! Visited from out of Ohio, and so glad we stopped here. Sherry was fantastic and gave a great tour. Lots and lots to see, fun stories, and really interesting facts. Highly recommend as a must see if in the area!!

Fun great for kids

Unique, fun, and very different kind of adventure. Gift shop amazing! Displays are incredibly artistic and detailed. Great for kids and adults who want to take a walk down memory lane.

Looks like a lot of fun. Can't wait for the Grandchildren to use the gift certificates

Really good tour hearing about the three kinds of trolls and their history and lore. Much better then i was expecting. And am wanting to go back and see some exhibits when they they complete.

Beautiful tour. Very lovely tour guide. It was a wonderful place and will definitely come by again.

Very unique experience! I highly recommend visiting this attraction and the owner and workers are very nice and welcoming. The tour is much larger than you would expect and is definitely something you won't see anywhere else.

I don't know the place I just went there to play Pokemon

Very interesting! Rooms full of trolls. Spend the money and take the full tour. An wonderful weird place in an obviously distressed Ohio city.

Awesome . I'll definitely visit again. My granddaughter loved it.

What a unique museum. When we first walked upstairs I thought, this is it? Nope, several rooms filled with everything trolls and I mean everything. So much I never knew about trolls, thanks for the tour. The gentleman who does all the displays is amazing. Go check it out!

This place is the quaintest of the quaint with adorable troll collectibles and other items from around the world. The folks who run it are also super nice! Whether you like unique hand-crafted items or brightly colored movie troll dolls, this is a place that is fun to visit! I highly recommend you check it out if you're in town.

Fantastic place to take a day trip to from Pittsburgh, Cleveland or beyond. Reminisce about your childhood and learn some new things, too! Have a snack and a stroll through this charming small town. Thanks for a wonderful visit.

Very unexpected really in all the best ways. Expected just the troll doll museum, got to learn the ancient folklore and crypto status of "real life" trolls. Amazing experience. Totally recommend.

The Troll Hole in Alliance is the very definition of a hidden gem. Roy did a great job filling us in on the history and origins of trolls, from the trolls of yesteryear to today’s sweet Disney trolls.The tour lasted about an hour and took us through a house filled with literally thousands of troll doll and figurines. Anyone who owned trolls (or Wishniks!) as a child will enjoy revisiting a childhood favorite. If you didn’t own a troll, you’re still in for a treat. Grab a cup of fresh coffee at the Troll Hole Cafe and take a leisurely stroll through a fun troll fantasy tour. We’ll be back to see the new additions to the Troll Hole’s collection!

The Troll Hole is a great place for adults and children. We had a wonderful time being shown each different room, and the cafe and gift shop were also super fun. Our tour guide was down to earth and obviously loved his job. The card machine wasn’t working, but instead of making us get cash, they took us on the tour first and had us pay later. Would go again. There’s also a cat cafe close by, so start at the Troll Hole and get lunch/dinner after :))
