Boca Raton History Museum Review
Under the shimmering golden dome of the city's original town hall is a vital repository of archival material and special exhibits on the area's development, run by the Boca Raton Historical Society. With advance reservations, you can experience a 40-minute guided tour of Boca Raton's original town hall and a small museum. The Boca Raton Historical Society also runs a monthly trolley tour from January to April, on the 3rd Thursday of each month (10 am-noon), which takes patrons around town to historic and modern points of interest, including Old Floresta and Mizner Park. Finally, on the first and third Friday of the month from January to April, tours are offered through the Boca Express Train Musuem, housed in a 1930 restored depot.
