Now open: the first floor of the Hall of Fishes marine museum; the Habitat and Stoll Wing animal dioramas; and the natural-history and cultural-artifact galleries on the first floor of the Memorial Wing.
The Mansion living quarters and the Reichert Planetarium remain closed at this time.
We welcome a limited number of visitors on Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, from 12 pm to 5 pm.
Tickets are available online and at the gate.
Please wear a mask when unable to maintain 6-feet distancing from others or when indoors.
The Vanderbilt’s highest priority is always the safety and health of its guests, staff, and volunteers, and now even more so during the spread of COVID-19.
The Museum understands the importance of taking preventative measures to keep everyone protected. Signs around the property will remind visitors that social distancing and the wearing of masks are required.
