This is a hidden gem 💎! So glad we stumbled across this. Definitely worth the admission price for the museum's and I can't wait for them to get the new addition for the cars. The owner was so sweet and eager to tell you the history of this amazing collection. I walked out with a antique tea set. Antique store is free however, $10 for museum admission.

Took my family here as a nice day-outing. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and so welcoming. The museums alone hold so much fun history and it's all local too. Whether you're visiting or a Columbus native, this is a fun must-see stop!

The lunch box museum was vast and nostalgic. The car museum had only a few cars but definitely worth looking at. Admission was $10 per person but we had a great visit.

This place doesn't look like much on the outside, but the inside is AMAZING! My family and I enjoyed it so much, and the older gentleman who owns the place is so kind and knowledgeable about everything. I enjoyed listening to the things he talked about. There's an antique shop connected to all the little museums, there I found a Little Debbie doll, and I just had to take her home with me🙂

Me and my husband had a blast here! Lots of amazing history here! The caretakers were accommodating and knowledgeable. It was fun going down memory lane for an afternoon and seeing some old shows on a lunchbox. This a sweet gem in the middle of Columbus

All of the museums were really cool. My little one loves seeing all the different lunchboxes and finding characters she knew. The airstream is awesome in the car museum and everybody is super friendly. There’s something cool to look at every time you turn your head.

We met the curator of the museum and was able to chat with him awhile. He shared with us some really interesting facts and stories. Such a cool place!

Don’t let the outside fool you, this place is amazing inside. The lunchbox museum is awesome, you can look at a row three different times and find one you didn’t see! From Disney to Little House on the Prairie it’s like taking a trip back in time. The owner is a wealth of knowledge and more than happy to tell you all about the exhibits. There is also an RC Cola and a Toms exhibit as well. Plenty to see and could easily kill and hour here looking at everything.

It’s like walking back through time while absorbing it’s history along the way. This collection of museums had different assortments of items ranging from lunchboxes and thermoses to Royal Crown Cola, Nehi, and Tom’s items to the progression of radios to rare cars. After exploring the various museums, I encourage you to peruse the antique section of rare finds and you may be surprised with the collection of household items, still filled bottles, home decor, appliances, and records. You can even start your collection of RC Cola and Nehi glass bottles for purchase. I recommend asking the owner of the museum about the monkey figures and who has the only other set. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for those new to Columbus, long-term residents, and visiting family and friends!!!

The museums were amazing and really a great place to visit!! The lunchbox museum was fantastic and a really great nostalgic visit to the past!!

Found myself at the Colombus Collective Museums with my husband while in town from Texas. We got to meet the curator, Allen Woodall, and his granddaughter who were both super helpful and knowledgeable. We got to see The Lunchbox Museum, The RC Cola Museum, The Chero-Cola Museum, The Nehi Drink Museum, The Tom Huston Peanut Museum, The Georgia Radio Museum and The Car Museum for just $10 each. The museums are curated to perfection with so many bright, mint-condition pieces of history. With so much to see and learn in one building, should you find yourself in Colombus, GA, this is a must visit.

this was VERY cool! it’s connected to a antique shop, so when you first enter, you can’t see the museum, but it’s behind these colorful curtains near the back and when i walked through, waves of childhood just came to me. the floors were bright yellow and red, the walls were covered in vintage lunchboxes (of course). the best part about the museum is that it felt like it never ended- it was more than just the lunchboxes. everything was super stacked on top of each other, but not hoarded, and it was very clean. there were also vintage cars that were in great shape. 10/10 would definitely recommend and would definitely go again! plus, there was a sweet kitty out front :)

As someone who loves antiques this place was great!!! Allen is so passionate about his collection and excited to share - it doesn’t disappoint! You can shop around before or after you walk through the collection as well. (If you collect records this is great place to go)
