Museums in Madison: good to know

Several of Madison's best museums are free: the Chazen Museum of Art on the UW campus, the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art (MMoCA) downtown, and the Wisconsin Veterans Museum on the Capitol Square. The Madison Children's Museum charges admission but has free Thursday nights.

The Wisconsin Historical Museum's replacement, the new Wisconsin History Center on the Capitol Square, is scheduled to open in early 2028. Small local historical societies around Dane County keep shorter hours, often seasonal, so check before you go.
