What visitors say
Free museum is located on the upper floor of Mama Mia's Pizza; a collection of memorabilia, photos and more from the construction of the Mackinaw Bridge. Some exhibits are on the edges of the dining area and may be less accessible…
Great spot to have a quick detour of your wanting to do some sightseeing at museums. This location is inside a pizza eatery, located up stairs. There is no entry fee to see the museums artifacts. It did feel weird looking at these items…
Want great information about the bridge? This museum is amazing, artifacts, stories, video records by people who built the bridge, and a theater that plays a great documentary about the bridge... the only weird but strangely interesting…
