The basics

While the exhibition on the Greek Revival building’s history as a coin mint is interesting, most visitors come for the jazz. The New Orleans Jazz Museum, featured on many guided tours of the French Quarter, tells the story of this musical genre through interactive exhibits and the largest and most comprehensive collection of jazz artifacts in the world. The museum’s third floor houses a performing arts venue with live jazz performances almost daily. Museum admission is included in several New Orleans multi-attraction passes.
