The city of Hamilton is well known for its factories and production processes. How do we go about our manufacturing processes and what kind of technology is used? There are the types of questions that will be answered at the Hamilton Museum of Steam and Technology.

The museum offers tours and exhibits. As with most museums there are special events scheduled throughout the year that you can bring the whole family to. The Hamilton Museum of Steam and Technology is a great place to bring the kids when they have a day off school – although maybe they will be done with learning for the week. Learning about the city of Hamilton doesn’t have to be a chore or feel like a task. The Steam Museum makes learning fun for everyone and we guarantee you will enjoy your time at the Hamilton Museum of Steam and Technology.

The best time of year to visit the Hamilton Museum of Steam and Technology is in the spring or fall when the weather isn’t too hot or too cold. The historic house in which the museum is located is not air conditioned or heated, and so it can be uncomfortable in extreme weather conditions. This is the result of keeping the pumps operating smoothly and preventing future repairs.
