New York Historical Society
A trip to New York wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the New-York Historical Society with its four centuries of history and art – plus the only Children’s History Museum in the area. It hits the spot for anyone craving an offbeat (and often surprising) bite of the city’s culture easily digested in an hour or two. Quirky, smart, immersive and across the street from beautiful Central Park, it offers a rich taste of the city.
The New-York Historical Society boasts a hip new vibe.
You know the city – now hear the stories. Witness New York’s rise from remote outpost to city at the center of the world in our 18-minute panoramic film experience, New York Story, in surround-sound on a 75-foot screen. Then travel through time in visionary exhibitions and an entire floor of children’s galleries that show why this city has always captivated hearts and minds.
We were absolutely blow away by the film which manages to convey more about New York and its history than one could imagine ever being crammed into 18 minutes. – CL, New York NY
History will break free from the textbooks and jump into your life!
Refresh yourself this summer with our Madeline in New York show (through October 19, 2014) celebrating the 75th anniversary of the beloved French schoolgirl and her adventures. You’ll see artwork from all the books as well as panels painted by the author/illustrator for the Onassis yacht and drawings capturing life in the old Ritz hotel in New York City.
Homefront & Battlefield (through August 24, 2014) commemorates the 150th anniversary of the Civil War by showing you the stories beneath the veneer of Blue & Gray. Then explore one of the finest collections of American art in The Works, some of the stars of our paintings collection.
Hungry for more? Experience the casual elegance of Caffè Storico which offers tasty Italian fare and specialty cocktails, then explore the Museum Store for unique New York City gifts and exhibition-related merchandise.

WHAT PEOPLE SAID
I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I went to New York in November 2009 for the second time. The first time (April 2001) I went there by myself and I fell in love with NY. And the second time I went with my boyfriend, so this time I wanted to take him to all the big attractions and other beautiful places in the city, and what a great way to do it with the New York Pass. We stayed there for 10 days so we purchased the 7-days New York Pass. It included almost every place we wanted to go to, and that was great. Ten days was not enough for us to explore this amazing city but the New York Pass sure helped a lot. We didn't have to wait in the line to enter places, we saved money, and we got additional discounts too! It was also great to be able to buy it from home, online. When we got there, we only had to pick it up at Planet Hollywood (which is located in Times Square, great location, near everything) and start using it! Plus, the city guide that comes with the New York Pass came very handy. It has very good descriptions of all the attractions included in the NYP and other useful information such as how to get there (subway, bus). Purchasing the New York Pass was the best thing I could have done. We saved money and time! I recommended it to everyone back home.
Ana from Argentina
A friend of mine tipped me about the New York Pass and because we were going to visit New York, we thought it would be a good idea to purchase one. The greatest thing of the New York Pass is that you can skipp the lines in museums and most other sights of New York, so you don't have to spend your time standing in line! Second of all we liked the discounts you get in restaurants, museu and other stores in New York. Dutch people are always looking for a discount!
Nicolette from Netherlands
The idea of buying a NY Pass was great and paid back big time. This wasn’t only the money saving, but also the time I would have to spend otherwise, looking for attractions and planning. You saved me the time and the money
Colin from Scotland
my wife and me had the chance to visit New York from 17th to 21st of December 2009. At this short stay we took the opportunity to buy two "NewYorkPass" which was a very good decision. With this pass you get a great overview what to visit in New York and you safe money as well. We took two bustours (Downtown Loop and Uptown Loop) and a ride on a three hours ship tour around Manhattan Island. We visited the MOMA, the Guggenheim and few other museums and had a beautiful view from the Empire State Building. From our point of view the New York Pass safes money and makes live easier for tourists. Best regards from Ingolstadt in Germany.
