This Museum is excellent and the only one in the area for the Maidu People who lived in the Roseville. foothills area. There are trail and Museum tours, some free days to the public. Gift shop and dedicated staff and docents who are true to the history of the local Maiduans. There is a gift shop. Campfire evenings for story telling. Petroglyphs and many other points of interest. Highly recommended.

This is a quality museum, with really excellent displays, wonderful art. The staff and volunteers are fabulous! Nice walk on the trail to see petroglyphs. Excellent stories around the fire on camp fire nights.

We came mainly for the outdoor nature loop which we walked twice. The landscape is very dry due to the drought. Birds, hares and lizards. Lots to read in the interpretive center. The story of the forced "Trail of tears" March should be taught to all Californians. We nearly destroyed these native peoples, but they have survived and deserve the respect this museum displays.

We were in Roseville with a few hours to kill before a wedding. We stumbled across this while driving around.Excellent exhibits and very well curated. Walking path was very engaging.If you go, there is no parking lot, so you need to park below the sports fields or across the street.

This museum and site shows the life of the Miwok and their culture dating back to the Stone Age. There is both an indoor and outdoor component of your visit. The indoor is a typical museum with information and artifacts. The outdoor part of this site is the petroglyphs and grinding rocks, with a reconstructed hut (not sure if that is year-round). Tours of the grinding rock area are available at limited dates and times. Throughout the year they do storytelling and campfires in the evening. Overall, Roseville is lucky to have such a great museum and site.

This Nisenan Maidu site was protected by being part of a family landholding, and it was transferred to City of Roseville ownership. The City has included the spot as part of a regional park with senior center, etc. nearby, and has built a new museum and culture center on the site Nisenan Maidu people lived their everyday lives - a small village was here, and a number of petroglyphs illustrate a bit of their beliefs and practices. The museum offers artifacts and a lot of information on who the Nisenan Maidu people were and are - and the local Nisenan people use this as a center for some of their celebrations and communal activities to this day, highlighting its importance.Volunteer docents bring this place to life - guided walks reveal oak varieties, a large grinding area and how the Nisenan Maidu prepared acorn flour and products, a yellow ochre "mine" for trading for obsidian and other necessary products, plant materials used in food, medicine, basket and home products preparation, and often one can participate in grinding acorns, etc. The center is particularly targeted to school groups, so check the schedule - and look for special events, nighttime campfires with stories and presentations, etc. to learn about the poorly understood and overlooked native peoples of this area and how they interacted with the earth in a mutually beneficial way.

If you need a break between the Bay Area and Tahoe, The Maidu Museum is only minutes off the I-80 freeway. The thirty acres site has an one mile loop which will surely get the kinks out of your legs. The walk provides bedrock mortars,petroglyphs, towering oaks and a running stream (and lots more!). If possible, take the guided docent tour given each Saturday morning. The staff and volunteers do an excellent job in helping understand a culture that had thrived for thousands of years.

Closed for Christmas season (when kids are out of school) is really dumb. No I cannot say mose as we did not even get in the door as it was locked and no one was there according to the sign posted out front.

This is a gem - not to be missed. Both staff and volunteers are invested in making your visit the best learning experience it could be. There are trails where you can see petroglyphs. It is in the lovely Maidu Park which has a play area for the little ones.

The Maidu Museum is located on a archaeological site of the home of the indigenous Maidu Indian culture. That culture flourished in what is now Roseville, CA for over 7,000 years. The Museum features exhibits of items found within the grounds, as well of other artifacts and hand-crafted items of other indigenous peoples and current Native American groups in California.The Museum's interpretive showcases are thoughtfully displayed within a simulated Hogan (Maidu living space). They tell the story of ancient and historical Maidu culture as well as how the culture was disseminated by the influx of the California Gold Rush. There are cases and walls of hand-crafted baskets, tools and local paintings by historical and modern Native American artists. The changing traveling exhibits add a broad range of educational dimensions. The Museum is open to the public with a small fee for personal enjoyment and some docent-led interpretive tours around the ancient Maidu village grounds. During the week free daily grade-school tours are offered in the Spring through the Fall. As I live across the street from Maidu Regional Park that includes the Museum, I am frequently able to enjoy this fine educational attraction. With it's fine displays and interpretive offerings, It has truly helped me to better understand indigenous Native cultures. I count the MaiduMuseum as amongst the greatest in California and perhaps the Nation.
