Thomas A. Greene Memorial Museum
Thomas A. Greene Memorial Museum, Geological museum in Milwaukee, United States
The Thomas A. Greene Memorial Museum displays mineral specimens and fossil collections within the Department of Geosciences at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Architect Alexander C. Eschweiler designed this museum in 1913 to house the collection of Thomas A. Greene, a Milwaukee druggist and geological collector.
The museum received National Historic Landmark designation in 1993 for maintaining an intact amateur geological collection of 75,000 specimens from southeastern Wisconsin.
Visitors can explore the museum collections Monday through Thursday at specific times, with the main entrance located at 3367 North Downer Avenue.
The fossil collection includes Silurian marine invertebrates and Devonian specimens gathered from quarry outcrops that no longer exist in southeastern Wisconsin.
