Begin your exploration at Pink Palace Museum & Mansion, the heart and home of Memphis history with a permanent collection spanning every era and rotating interactive exhibits that energize and enlighten.

Built by Piggly Wiggly founder Clarence Saunders, his “pink palace” is now home to towering mastodons, giant mosasaurs, Civil War relics, rare rocks and prehistoric fossils among other intriguing exhibit items you’ll discover.

Embark on a “massive” adventure in the Giant Screen Theater, shop in a replica of the first Piggly Wiggly, or vibe at a laser light show in the planetarium.

A collection of Memphis’ greatest treasures—including Pink Palace Museum & Mansion, Lichterman Nature Center, Mallory-Neely House, and Coon Creek Science Center—offers opportunities for all ages to discover natural history, science, nature, and culture.
