Museums

There is always something new to learn or see in Pittsburgh. The Carnegie Museums of Art and Natural History are just steps from Pitt's campus, as is Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. Across the river, you'll find the interactive exhibits of the Carnegie Science Center and UPMC SportsWorks, the pop art explosion of The Andy Warhol Museum, and the installation art of the Mattress Factory. Artisan shops and galleries dot the cityscape. Animal lovers can delight in the National Aviary or Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium, while history buffs can visit Pittsburgh's past at the Senator John Heinz Pittsburgh Regional History Museum or at French and Indian War battlefields. Restored, period mansions are open to the public, preserving the affluence of the city's industrial heyday.
