Kemerer Museum of Decorative Arts in Allentown

Okay so The Kemmerer Museum of Decorative Arts is INCREDIBLE The Attendant told me that it was built and designed out of three homes and theres just a numerous amount of exhibits ranging from a Victorian remake of a bedroom, tearoom, & office to a sports memorabilia, all the way to a dollhouse and youngster playtoys exhibit. HISTORIC BETHLEHEM NEVER FAILS TO IMPRESS AND WITH CITY HALL, THE LIBRARY, AND THE ROTUNDA GALLERY (NOT TO MENTION THE BREATHTAKING VIEWSNEARBY YOU SHOULD NOT MISS THIS MUSEUM!

Nice local museum with interesting exhibits. Small gift shop too.

This was a happy gem to have found by accident.

Great space and awesome exhibit of Esther M Lee.

Great handbag exhibit

A must-visit if you come to downtown Bethlehem. In fact, many people who live here havent been to this quaint museum yet and thats just not acceptable. They have a fascinating permanent collection and rotate in special exhibits as well! Like the Purse Lady! (Shes awesome)

Wonderful display of pocketbooks.

Interesting visit, unique items to view. The Kemerer is part of a walking tour package of other museums around the historic district of Bethlehem which highlight the heritage and culture of 19th-century founders of a Moravian religious order. For history buffs, a great sidetrip here to the Lehigh Valley just north of Philadelphia.

Has some nice pieces of art on display. Also includes rotating special displays.

My second year in a row was there... Great tour guide too... love to see all the trees and great ask the history

Very interesting museum about the history of the Moravians and much more.

Design after dark PINBALL!

Arcade night was fun

A quant local museum that is part of the Bethlehem museum "complex". Visited here as they were hosting a classic arcade themed Friday night "shindig". Very cool, Bethlehem it seems has much more history than one might think and when combined with interesting events like this worth checking out. Staff was polite and engaging.

This is a beautiful museum with a cute event to get people inside.

One of the hidden museums of Bethlehem. Even locals are surprised to know there are museums and events weekly here. Great place inside with both good staff and volunteers. Visiting is a must in my opinion

Dont know I never went there

We had such an enjoyable, mind expansion of knowledge. Our tour guide Carol was so very knowledgeable about every detail of every aspect of the entire museum.We truly did not expect to be wowed the way we were. Great museum tucked away. You should seek it out and make sure you have time to peruse.

Amazing, changing collection of mostly Victorian-era decorative artwork and furnishings, plus informative guides to put it in perspective. A hidden jewel in Bethlehem!

A beautiful history of Bethlehem

Beautiful museum, nice docents, loved the Christmas trees.

Wonderful museum for Bethlehem culture!

It was a delightful experience!

Very interesting museum that showcases the way people lived in the Lehigh Valley through the past few centuries. From the locally made grandfather clocks to the full-room reproductions to the many dollhouses, we spent an enjoyable and educational 2 hours learning about our past.

This place was pretty neat. We went during the free Sundays they were promoting. They had snacks and crafts for the kids. Theres a play area and you can join the tour. They also have a printed scavenger hunt. Definitely recommend doing this.

A gem of a museum in Bethlehem. What a collection!

What a great place to learn a bit of history!

Personal tour is great. Doll houses are fantastic!

A great place to learn local Bethlehem history.

Attended a reception. Fine holiday ambience. Great music!

Charming museum filled with wonderful Moravian historical artifacts, furniture, art and more! Especially the dollhouses!
