Makieta i multimedialna prezentacja robią robotę - wspaniała rzecz, świetnie zaprojektowana! Ale i pokoje, a także stare zdjęcia - super!

Muzeum bardzo ciekawe i godne polecenia. Dzięki dużej makiecie wraz z pokazem multimedialnym można lepiej poznać historię Białegostoku i potęgi Branickich. W muzeum można też zobaczyć nieistniejący już hotel Ritz oraz podziwiać mnóstwo pięknych i interesujących przedmiotów z początku XX wieku. Do tego bardzo sympatyczni pracownicy

Ciekawe muzeum. Szczególnie warto zobaczyć makietę miasta i multimedialną historię. Fajne są także pokoje zamożnych mieszczan. Szkoda, że nie ma żadnych archeologicznych artefaktów z Białegostoku i okolic. Brakuje też informacji o losach miasta w czasie IIWŚ. Jest spory niewykorzystany potencjał.
