The
Pink Palace Museum is one of the largest of its kind in the Southeast, and a tremendous look into the culture and history of Memphis. Built by Clarence Saunders, founder of the Piggly Wiggly supermarket chain, the
Pink Palace Museum features a walk through replica of the first self-serve grocery store in the country and tons of exhibits on life in Memphis from the time of dinosaurs to the 20th century. Whether marveling at giant fossils or learning how medicine became big business in Memphis, the
Pink Palace Museum is a truly varied look into Memphis.
The Pink Palace Museum is open daily, except for major holidays. Next time you're in the Memphis area be sure to stop by and see why nearly a quarter of a million people visit the Pink Palace Museum each year.
